When the BJP's victory became certain, Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Ajit Jogi shut himself inside his official residence, Karuna, in Raipur.

For all the forecasts of a close fight, the BJP did not have to labour too hard for a win. Pollsters had predicted that party would be hit hard by the Dilip Singh Judeo bribe tape.
