Exit polls: TRS in Telangana, Cong in Raj; close race in MP, Chhattisgarh

TV exit polls on Friday were predicting the five-state elections, results of which may be a preview of next year's Lok Sabha polls and are seen by some as a test of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's popularity.
Madhya Pradesh and Mizoram voted on November 28; Rajasthan and Telangana on December 7, and Chhattisgarh went to the polls in two phases on November 12 and 20. The results for all the five Assembly elections will be declared on December 11.

October opinion polls favoured the BJP in Madhya Pradesh, suggesting it may be close to a majority in the 230-seat Assembly.
