The electoral battle across five states, which concluded today with voting in Telangana on 119 seats, has set the stage for intense political outcomes. The Poll of Polls suggests a likely victory for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Madhya Pradesh. On the other hand, the Congress appears poised to make significant gains in Telangana, turning the tide in its favour. The Poll of Exit Polls anticipates a closely contested battle between the Mizo National Front (MNF) and Zoram People's Movement (ZPM) in Mizoram.
In Rajasthan, where voting transpired on 199 out of 200 seats, the Congress aims to overcome the "Rajasthan jinx" and reclaim power. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) strategically focused on riding an "anti-incumbency" wave in the state during its election campaign.
Chhattisgarh emerges as a key state where the Congress harbours high hopes. In Telangana, the political landscape is characterised by a fierce competition involving the ruling BRS, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), and the Congress. Prime Minister Modi extensively campaigned in the state, aiming to secure a BJP-led government in the southern region.
The election results are eagerly awaited, as they hold the potential to reshape the political dynamics in these states. The Poll of Exit Polls offers a glimpse into the potential outcomes, with Madhya Pradesh seemingly leaning towards the BJP and Telangana showing promise for the Congress. Mizoram remains a battleground, poised for a neck-and-neck competition between the MNF and ZPM.
