Polls in three states – Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh – saw bipolar competition between the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Congress.
The BJP has ruled Madhya Pradesh, the largest of the voting states, for 18 of the past 20 years. It was a showdown with the Congress in the state, as the latter hoped to use the anti-mandate opportunity to return to power. The majority of opinion polls predict a tight fight between the BJP and the Congress. Two give an edge to the Congress and one to the BJP. IndiaToday-AxisMyIndia and Today’s Chanakya-News 24 polls have predicted a BJP win.

BRS has ruled the state since its inception. Four exit polls indicate that Congress will win a simple majority of its own. Others predict it will likely become the largest party.
The Congress suffered a defeat in the 2018 polls and ended up with about 20 percentage points of votes in favor of the BRS. He ran the 2023 campaign under state unit chief Revanth Reddy, who targeted BRS for corruption and anti-incumbency. Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao focuses on his welfare schemes and schemes.
Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar flew to Hyderabad on Saturday, apparently in solidarity with the Congress. He alleged that BRS was trying to contact its lawmakers.
