Bunty Vivek Sahu is leading ahead of former CM Kamal Nath's son Nakul Nath by 45,000 votes. Former CM Shivraj Singh Chouhan is leading by 3.87 lakh votes in Vidisha.

The biggest victory margin in MP will be in Indore as the Congress candidate withdrew his nomination on the last day and joined the BJP.
