Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh) [India], December 1 : Former Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh Kamal Nath on Friday claimed that some exit polls were deliberately created to disappoint Congress workers and put pressure on officers by creating a false atmosphere.
Nath made the remark in a video which he shared on his X handle to motivate his party workers to be alert for the counting of votes which is scheduled to be held on December 3.
The former CM can be heard saying, "All Congress workers should get into the field with full force. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has lost the elections. Some exit polls have been deliberately created so that Congress workers get disappointed and to put pressure on the officers by creating a false atmosphere. This conspiracy is not going to succeed."
All Congress officials, district presidents, district in-charges and party workers should geared up in their respective work and conduct fair counting of votes for the state assembly polls, Nath added.
He further said, "We are all ready to win and are all united. If you (party workers) feel any problem then please talk to me directly or inform the Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) office on December 3. The Congress Party is going to be in power in the state on December 3."
Most exit-poll projections on Thursday put BJP in the lead, with the Congress seen to be coming up short and not cashing in on the 'anti-incumbency' as they had hoped to. Some exit polls, however, gave an advantage to the Congress.
Earlier, CM Shivraj Singh Chouhan interacted with the media persons over the exit polls result and said the BJP would come back again with a huge majority in the state.
"Because of the hard work of our workers and people's love and blessings, also because of schemes of Central government, like Garib Kalyan Yojana, PM Kisan Samman Nidhi, PM Awaz Yojana and Madhya Pradesh government's schemes like Ladli Behna Yojana, Ladli Laxmi Yojana, BJP has made a special place in the hearts of women. It is the result of the implementation of various welfare schemes of the BJP government that the BJP is going to get a huge majority again," CM Chouhan said.
Madhya Pradesh went to polls for its 230 seats on November 17 with 77.15 percent voter turnout. The counting of votes will take place on December 3.
