The Congress is predicted to get just 70 to 89 seats in the state. The India TV-CNX Exit Poll also predicted 46 per cent of the vote share for the BJP in Madhya Pradesh, while the Congress party may be reduced to just 38 per cent of the vote share.

The Bhopal region of Madhya Pradesh anticipates significant gains for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), as indicated by the India TV-CNX exit poll. The forecast suggests that the BJP is likely to secure victory in 18 seats, while the Congress may attain success in 6 seats. The remaining seats are projected to remain unclaimed by other political entities. This region encompasses a total of 24 seats.

In Madhya Pradesh, the two major political parties are the Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). The other two major parties in the state are the Samajwadi Party (SP) and the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP). Madhya Pradesh has 230 Assembly seats. In the state, 34 seats are reserved for Scheduled Castes (SCs), and 47 seats are set aside for Scheduled Tribes (STs). In Madhya Pradesh, there are 5,60,925 general voters and 75,304 service voters. Thus, there are 5,61,36,229 electors in total, according to the electoral rolls. The Congress formed the government under Kamal Nath after winning 114 seats in the 2018 Madhya Pradesh Assembly Elections. Following three straight wins in 2003, 2008, and 2013, the BJP under Shivraj Singh Chouhan secured 109 seats. The Congress government, however, was short-lived as 22 MLAs loyal to senior party leader Jyotiraditya Scindia rebelled against Nath's state leadership.
