Following an exciting Sunday, all eyes are on Mizoram for the results of the final state vote, which would put an end to the intense contest for poll positions in all five assemblies prior to the Lok Sabha elections. Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, and Rajasthan are the three states in the nation's center where the BJP won resounding victories.
In Telangana, Congress crushed the "hat-trick" goal of the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) led by K Chandrashekar Rao, and became the first non-BRS government in the state's history. This was Congress' second victory in the southern region this year. The topic of prospective chief ministers who would head a new set of cabinets for the next five years remains for the BJP to answer in the wake of its historic victory in three states.
In Rajasthan, the party had to decide between Baba Balaknath, Diya Kumari, and Vasundhara Raje. Or will there be a surprise aspect added by the party? In the meantime, Chhattisgarh veteran Raman Singh is thought to be the front-runner for the top spot. Similarly, Shivraj Singh Chouhan, the four-time chief minister of Madhya Pradesh, might run for a fifth term.
