NEW DELHI: The Congress seems to have failed to capitalise on the gains it made in the 2018 assembly elections in the three states of Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan, according to the exit poll predictions.
The BJP, which had lost its governments in the three states in assembly elections, will manage to hold on to its Lok Sabha seats, according to the exit poll predictions.
The poll of polls projects that the BJP is likely to win 24 seats in Madhya Pradesh and 22 in Rajasthan.
The Congress is expected to win only five and three seats in these states respectively.
In Chhattisgarh, where the Congress had managed a comprehensive victory in the 2018 assembly elections, the party is predicted to win only 4 seats. The BJP is projected to win seven seats.
The exit poll projections will come as a huge disappointment for the Congress which had hoped to make comprehensive gains in the Hindi heartland.
