Vidhan Sabha Election Results 2018 | We accept people’s mandate with humility, congratulations to Congress for their victories: PM Modi

While the TRS registered a splendid victory in Telangana, the Congress trounced the BJP in Chhattisgarh and looks set to return to power in both Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh

India TV News Desk Edited by: India TV News Desk New Delhi Updated on: December 12, 2018 1:33 IST

Congress party candidates on Tuesday took significant leads in BJP-ruled Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh. In Madhya Pradesh, they were inching ahead of the saffron party in assembly elections. Trends from counting centres also showed that the Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) appeared set to retain power in Telangana. In Mizoram, the Mizo National Front (MNF) on Tuesday scripted a spectacular victory, uprooting the grand old party in its last bastion in the Northeast to return to power after 10 years. 

Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje and Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Raman Singh on Tuesday night handed over their resignations to the Governors of their respective states. Mizoram Chief Minister Lal Thanhawla also resigned on Tuesday evening following the debacle by Congress in the assembly election and admitted that he had "underestimated" the opposition strength.
