Day Before MP Poll Counting, Digvijaya Singh Takes 'Traitor' Jibe At Jyotiraditya Scindia

Brushing aside the exit polls predictions of the BJP having an edge in the state polls, former Madhya Pradesh CM Digvijay Singh said that Congress is fully prepared and confident of its victory as there is no traitor left in the party. , "We are fully prepared. Now we have no Scindia left, hence there is no traitor," said Singh while talking to reporters in Bhopal.

Recently, Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi also termed Scindia a 'traitor' while campaigning in the state. Madhya Pradesh went to polls for its 230 seats on November 17 with 77.82 per cent voter turnout.

The majority of the exit poll predicted a close contest in the state with the BJP having an edge. Some exit polls even gave a majority to the Congress as well. According to Axis My India exit poll, the BJP will win 140–162 seats, while the Congress will win 68–90. Polstrat awarded the Congress 111-121 seats and the BJP 106-116.
