BJP secured a massive victory in three out of four states situated in the country’s heartland – Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan. In its second win in the south this year, Congress managed to crush K Chandrashekar Rao-led Bharat Rashtra Samithi’s (BRS) ‘hat-trick’ dream in Telangana and wrested power to form the first-ever non-BRS government in the youngest state.
After the big win in three states, the BJP continues to face the question of potential chief ministerial faces who would lead a new set of cabinets for the next five years.
