Kamal wilts in face of lotus onslaught

BJP's statement victory in Madhya Pradesh's assembly election, winning 163 of 230 seats, showed the fading of anti-incumbency under the leadership of PM Narendra Modi and the campaign strategy of Union home minister Amit Shah. The focus on PM Modi and the upcoming Lok Sabha election shifted attention away from anti-incumbency and corruption charges against the BJP government. Chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan's emotional outreach and welfare schemes, such as the allowance for women beneficiaries, played a crucial role in BJP's success.
