New Delhi, Dec 4: The BJP avenged its 2018 triple loss in the Hindi heartland states of Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh by registering huge victories in all three states. The victories in the three states have given a booster to the BJP ahead of the Lok Sabha elections which are scheduled to be held next year.
Congress, the grand old party achieved significant success in southern India, snatching Telangana from K Chandrashekar Rao's Bharat Rashtra Samithi. The grand old party will be the first non-KCR government in Telangana.
Madhya Pradesh: The BJP gained 54 seats compared to 2018 to win 163 seats in this year's MP election. The Congress 64 seats — a loss of 50 seats compared to 2018. An interesting part of the results was that while the Congress maintained almost a similar vote share (40-41%), the BJP increased its vote share by 7-8 percentage points.
Telangana: The Congress shocked the BRS to win 65 seats, with the ruling party finishing with 39 seats. The BJP improved its tally from one to eight, with K Venkata Ramana Reddy defeating CM KCR and Telangana Congress chief Revanth Reddy in Kamareddy. But three of its four Lok Sabha MPs tasted defeat.
Rajasthan: The BJP won 115 seats in the 199-member assembly & Congress secured 69 seats. A party needs 101 seats in Rajasthan to reach the majority mark in the 200-member assembly.
We bow to the Janta Janardan.

Chhattisgarh: The final results shocked many experts, who predicted the Congress to retain power here. The initial trends from the counting centers showed Congress gaining a substantial lead. But the BJP reversed the trend to win its biggest victory with 54 seats in the assembly. The Congress won just 35.
