The assembly poll results declared on Sunday signify a strong endorsement of the BJP's electoral strategy, centered around the appeal of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the party's governance agenda. This outcome deals a blow to Congress' aspirations for a revival in the Hindi heartland, reinforcing the perception that the BJP is positioned as the frontrunner to secure a third consecutive term in the 2024 elections.
In a calculated move, the BJP opted not to project any chief ministerial candidate, opting instead for a broader campaign narrative highlighting the achievements of the Modi government. Despite skepticism in certain quarters, particularly following a similar strategy in the Karnataka elections, the BJP's approach has proven successful in the five-state polls.
This marks the concluding update for our live blog. Stay connected with ABP Live as we delve into more in-depth coverage of the election results in Rajasthan, Telangana, Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, and Mizoram.
