Yedduyurappa has since resigned his CM post within a day after taking charge, since it had become clear that he could not prove majority support for his Government in the Karnataka Assembly. Rajinikanth also thanked the Supreme Court for intervening in this matter and ordering Yeddyurappa to prove his majority within a day, He has called it 'the success of Democracy'. .
