Seat change
Against Madhya Pradesh's previous Vidhan Sabha election (1993), matched constituency-for-constituency
- Retained157 (49%)
- Changed hands151 (47%)
- New seat12 (4%)
157 constituencies were won by the same party as last time; 151 changed hands. 12 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.
