India TV- CNX's exit poll redicted that Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is likely to continue its dominance in Madhya Pradesh. The exit poll predicted that the BJP is likely to win all 29 seats, including Kamal Nath's home turf Chhindwara.
Of the total 29 seats in Madhya Pradesh, polling was held in 21 in three phases on April 19, April 26 and May 7. Votes will be counted on June 4.
The Indore Lok Sabha seat has the maximum number of 14 candidates and Khargone has the least five nominees. Out of the eight seats, Indore also has the highest number of eligible voters at 25,26,803, while Ujjain had the least number of 17,98,704 electors.
In Ratlam, there is a straight fight between former Union minister Kantilal Bhuria (73) and state Forest Minister Nagar Singh Chauhan's wife Anita Chauhan.
In Indore, the 'None of the Above' (NOTA) option has unexpectedly hogged the limelight after Congress candidate Akshay Kanti Bam withdrew his nomination at the last minute and joined the BJP.
As Bam's move set the stage for a one-sided contest for BJP's Shankar Lalwani, who won from Indore by nearly 5.4 lakh votes last time, the Congress urged voters to hit the NOTA button.
