The BJP won three out of four states it fought in on full seats. It ousted Congress from power in Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh and retained Madhya Pradesh with a big margin. Whereas, Congress could only manage to remove Bharat Rashtra Samiti (BRS) from Telangana.

Congress has decided to make Telangana party chief Revanth Reddy the chief minister of the state, while the BJP is yet to come up with the final names of the CMs in the three states it won. Reports suggest that Madhya Pradesh CM Shivraj Singh Chouhan may not be made the CM again as he could be asked to be part of politics directly from Delhi.
