As a shock to Congress and many exit polls, the incoming results of the Madhya Pradesh assembly elections have turned out to be unpredictable with the Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP) easily sweeping the state.
The ABP-C Voter Exit Poll had predicted that Congress would most likely be able to dethrone the BJP in Madhya Pradesh as it was said to be winning anything between 113 to 137 seats and the BJP is looking at seats between 88 and 112.
The Congress was also projected to draw a vote share of 44.1 per cent, a growth from 40.9 per cent in the last election. The BJP, however, was likely to see a minor dip in the vote percentage at 40.7 per cent from 41 per cent in the last elections.
