The ruling BJP seems heading for a sweeping victory in Madhya Pradesh, having clinched 19 of 29 Lok Sabha seats so far with Union ministers Jyotiraditya Scindia, Faggan Singh Kulaste, and Virendra Kumar emerging victorious.
The BJP is leading in 10 other seats with a margin of its candidates ranging from 63,000 to 8.21 lakh, as per the Election Commission of India website.
Notably, the BJP has managed to breach the long-standing Congress citadel Chhindwara, which it failed to capture in the 2019 elections when it had won 28 seats.
If BJP manages to win all 29 seats, it will become the first political party to achieve such a feat after 40 years in Madhya Pradesh.
