The poll of exit polls has predicted that there is a close fight between the Congress and the BJP in Madhya Pradesh. In Chhattisgarh, the Congress is set to emerge as the biggest party in terms of seats, but it is not crossing the majority mark. In Telangana, TRS is set to win; whereas in Rajasthan, the Congress is set get a comfortable win. Voting in five states - Telangana, Chhattisgarh, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, and Mizoram - has concluded today. The results will be declared on December 11. They were hard-fought elections, with all the major political players leaving no stone unturned to convince people of the states to vote for them. In Madhya Pradesh, the fight was between Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan and his rival team of Jyotiraditya Scindia, Kamal Nath and Digvijaya Singh. While Mr Chouhan, the three-time Chief Minister, talked about his performance, the Congress leaders attacked him over the alleged Vyapam scam. In Telangana, the Congress-TDP alliance took on the TRS. Congress chief Rahul Gandhi called K Chandrashekar Rao, known as KCR, 'Khao Commission Rao'. Mr Rao, however, was unfazed and returned the barb, saying Rahul Gandhi spoke like a joker. In Rajasthan, the Congress is relying on the anti-incumbency factor against the Vasundhara Raje government. In Chhattisgarh, the Congress hopes to unseat Raman Singh, the Chief Minister who is seeking his fourth term. The main issues here were Maoism, tribal welfare and development. The elections in the states were fought on the national level as well. For the Congress, Rahul Gandhi campaigned extensively, attacking the BJP over the Rafale jet deal. Whereas the BJP, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and party chief Amit Shah, attacked the Nehru-Gandhi family, attacking it for not doing enough for the country.
