Seat change

Against Madhya Pradesh's previous Vidhan Sabha election (1977), matched constituency-for-constituency

320SEATS
  • Retained1 (0%)
  • Changed hands314 (98%)
  • New seat5 (2%)

1 constituencies were won by the same party as last time; 314 changed hands. 5 did not exist at the previous election.

India’s constituencies have not been redrawn since the 2008 delimitation, so this compares the same seat boundary both times.
