Businessman Robert Vadra on Thursday exuded confidence in Congress' victory in Madhya Pradesh along with other states and said that he has felt that people want a change.
"I don't believe in exit polls too much. I believe in the real result, which is on December 3 and I am looking forward to that," said Vadra. "I've met a lot of people in the last few months, I very clearly feel that people want a change. People are upset, especially in Madhya Pradesh. They were upset about how the BJP toppled the ruling government," he added. He further claimed that the Exit Polls had predicted a BJP win in Karnataka but the people had given a mandate to the Congress and the same would be repeated in Madhya Pradesh and other states as well. "Right now exit polls are there and everybody has a very fluctuating, very different kind of mandate or very different kind of assessment," said Vadra, adding that his family has done a lot to highlight things that the BJP government has not been able to provide to the people. "We will see on December 3. I think we should have very good results for the Congress," he said. Most exit polls predicted BJP having a clear advantage in Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan, a clear edge to Congress in Chhattisgarh and Telangana and that the ruling MNF was ahead in power sweepstakes in Mizoram. Reacting to the exit poll results in Madhya Pradesh, former Chief Minister of MP Kamal Nath appealed to the party workers not to get affected by most exit polls predicting a BJP win. In a post on X, Congress leader Kamal Nath said, "I want to remind all Congress workers of their strength. You people are the power of Congress and it is because of your hard work and dedication that the public has voted overwhelmingly in support of the Congress Party. When the counting of votes begins on December 3, the public will put a stamp on the Congress government." Stating that a country is run by vision, not by television, Kamal Nath said, "Many exit polls have shown Congress party forming the government while some exit polls are saying otherwise. Don't let all this distract you." However, Chief Minister Shivraj Singh thanked the women voters of the state, saying "Kaante ki takkar', 'Kaante ki takkar'...'Laadli behna ne saare kaante nikaal diye (What neck-to-neck fight? The daughters and sisters seems to have set us on the road to victory." Five states went to the polls this month, with counting slated for December 3. (ANI)
