The outcome of elections in MP, Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh, and Telangana will determine Congress's alliance bargaining as vote counting proceeds Sunday in the high-stakes semi-final ahead of 2024. Congress governs Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh, BJP rules Madhya Pradesh while KCR's BRS controls Telangana. Congress said its Telangana candidates received calls from KCR, sparking rumors of post-election alignments. With the four verdicts poised to reshape national opposition unity, Congress seeks state wins to strengthen its hand in 2024 negotiations and unite anti-BJP forces. But defeats may erode its stature attempting a larger anti-Modi front.
