With a clear edge in Chhattisgarh Assembly polls 2023, Congress hopes to retain the power in the state. However, BJP has also played all its cards, including riding on the popularity of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in hope to make a return. While the most probable faces for the Chief Minister post from Congress and BJP remain Bhupesh Baghel and Raman Singh respectively, there have been no official announcements from either party.
Among the key candidates in Chhattisgarh are Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel who is running from his home turf Patan, ex-Chief Minister Raman Singh who's running from Rajnandgaon, deputy Chief Minister TS Singh Deo contesting from Ambikapur and BJP's Vijay Baghel who is contesting against Bhupesh Baghel from Patan.
The voting for Chhattisgarh's 90-seat assembly happened in two phases on November 7 and November 17 and saw voter turnout of 78 percent and 75.88 percent respectively.
