Congress party has returned to power in Madhya Pradesh after 15 years. In past 15 years, Bharatiya Janata Party ruled the state. For the last 13 years, the state was led by Shivraj Singh Chouhan, while before him the party had given the post to Uma Bharti and Babulal Gaur. In the recently concluded assembly elections, Congress and BJP saw a neck-to-neck fight. In an assembly of 230 members, Congress won 114, while BJP scored 109. But Congress managed t make the government with the support of four independent, two BSP and one SP member.
