Among the heavyweights, Chief Minister Shivraj Chouhan was leading from Budhni and his predꦉecessor, the Congress' Kamal Nath, was ahead in his bastion of Chhindwara.
Earlier today Kamal 🍌Nath had declared himself "very confident" of a Congress win.
On Thursday too Nath had played down exit polls' prediction. In a post on X (formerly Twitter) he said, "I want to remind all Congress wor🎐kers of their strength... it is because of your hard work and dedication the public has voted overwhelmingly... public will put a stamp on the Congress government."
However, his rival Shivraj Chouhan was confident the BJP would return to power and form the government for a fifth time. This morning he said the party would🅺 retain 🦄power with a commanding majority.
"... I am conf👍ident that with the blessings of the people and the able leadership of Prim🍃e Minister Narendra Modi, the BJP will form government again with a full majority," he had said.
