Five states - Mizoram, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Telangana went to polls this year, which is being viewed as the semi-final to the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. The Election Commission of India has, however, revised the date for counting of votes for Mizoram where voting was conducted on November 7.

While voting was held in Madhya Pradesh on November 17. Rajasthan and Telangana voted in a single phase on November 25 and November 30 respectively.

Chhattisgarh voted on November 7 and November 17.Telangana Assembly elections

The Congress has successfully maintained its lead on 70 seats in Telangana Assembly elections, over four hours after the counting of votes began. The grand old party is surging ahead of the ruling BRS which is now maintaining its gains on 38 seats. The BJP and AIMIM are trailing with leads in 8 and 3 seats, respectively. Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao, who is contesting on two constituencies is leading in one while BJP's Eatala Rajendar is trailing. Telangana Congress chief Revanth Reddy is leading Kamareddy while BRS's KTR is trailing in Sircilla.

In the high-voltage polls in the southern state last month, "founding father" K Chandrasekhar Rao's Bharat Rashtra Samithi' banked on its social welfare programmes to stay on top while the Congress aimed for a repeat of its electoral success in neighbouring Karnataka. The BJP, on the other Telangana Assembly electionshand, is hoping to make inroads into the state to expand its reach in southern India. 

In the 119-seat Telangana Assembly, the parties will need to reach the magic number of 60 to form a government. In a seat-sharing agreement, the BJP and Jana Sena contested on 111 and 8 seats, respectively while the Congress gave one seat to its ally CPI.
