Assembly Elections 2023 Live: Hello and welcome to the live blog of ABP Live. Please follow this space for all the latest updates on assembly polls in Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Rajasthan, Telangana, and Mizoram.
Elections in five states are drawing to a close with nearly ten days remaining and only two more states left to vote: Rajasthan on November 25 and Telangana on November 30. The polls to the 230-member Madhya Pradesh Legislative Assembly were held on Friday, along with the second phase of polling in Chhattisgarh for the remaining 70 seats.
Election Commission of India on Thursday issued a show cause notice to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi over his 'panauti' (unlucky), 'pickpocket' and 'loan-waiver' remarks targeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The EC said the remarks were in violation of the Model Code of Conduct. Gandhi made the remarks addressing a rally in poll-bound Rajasthan.
The ECI said it received a complaint from the BJP against Rahul Gandhi, who made the remarks against PM Modi at a rally in Rajasthan’s Barmer.
The Congress leader has been asked to appear before the poll panel on November 25.
Reacting to the EC action, Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan said that Rahul Gandhi has become a "national problem".
Addressing an election meeting at Bagidora in poll-bound Rajasthan's Banswara, Chouhan attacked the Congress government in Rajasthan over a range of issues, including corruption, paper leaks and crime against women.
Meanwhile, Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge, addressing a rally in Rajasthan, said the people will not fall for the alleged "lies, deception and hateful words" of PM Modi and have decided to change the revolving door tradition of the state.
In a post in Hindi on X, Kharge said Rajasthan, the holy land of heroes and warriors, has accepted the Congress' public welfare schemes.
The results of the elections will be declared on Dec 3.
