Assembly Polls 2018

The rift between Ashok Gehlot and Sachin Pilot camps in Rajasthan, which started soon after the 2018 Assembly polls, seems far from over even after the completion of Lok Sabha elections in the desert state.

Chhattisgarh assembly election: The number of MLAs with declared assets worth over a crore (crorepati MLAs) has increased from 68 in 2018 to 72 in 2023.

The BJP swept the elections in Madhya Pradesh despite ruling there since 2003 - barring a 15-month period after 2018 - and the question on everyone's lips now is who the next chief minister will be.

The BJP, which suffered a huge setback in Chhattisgarh's tribal-dominated assembly seats in the 2018 polls, put up a good show this time winning 17 of the 29 seats reserved for the Scheduled Tribes (ST) category.

Union Minister and the BJP's Telangana president, G Kishan Reddy, on Sunday, lauded the party's performance in the Assembly polls in the state, saying that it doubled its vote share and won 8 seats to only a single one in the 2018 elections.

The voting percentage in Rajasthan, which votes out the incumbent government at every election, was marginally higher than the last time. In 2018, 74.24 per cent people had voted in the election, the corresponding figure was 74.62 per cent this time.

Who is Congress leader Sachin Pilot, the man who helped the party to win the 2018 Rajasthan election, only to stage an attempted coup two years later that almost brought it down?

Sachin Pilot's stature as a national-level Congress leader and his outreach to allay concerns of sections of influential communities here ahead of assembly polls has boosted his re-election bid from this constituency.

The battle for Madhya Pradesh is a prestige fight for the Congress. For the BJP, which has been ruling the state since 2004 barring two years, it is a chance to prove that the Congress victory of 2018 was an aberration.
