Assembly poll results: No clarity yet on CM choice in four states

New Delhi, 3/12: The election results are out but there is no clarity on who will be the chief minister of four states (Madhya Pradesh, Telangana, Chhattisgarh, and Rajasthan), as both the BJP and the Congress had not announced their CM faces.

Shivraj Singh Chouhan is likely to return as Chief Minister in Madhya Pradesh, as he steered the party to a victory fighting anti-incumbency. Though the central leadership appeared not keen on his continuation and did not declare him as the CM face.

In Chhattisgarh, former chief minister Raman Singh, state BJP president Arun Kumar Sao, leader of opposition Dharamlal Kaushik, and former IAS officer O P Chaudhary are seen as potential candidates for the top post. Other than Singh, all three are OBC leaders.

All eyes will be on Rajasthan where Vasundhara Raje is considered as the prominent Chief Ministerial candidate. However, the BJP is tightlipped about the leadership’s choice. A Revanth Reddy is the frontrunner for the Telangana Chief Minister post .
