The Samajwadi Party, which is leading in one seat in Madhya Pradesh, on Tuesday said it will support the Congress in forming the next government in the state where the Congress and the ruling BJP are locked in a neck and neck fight.
"We are winning one seat in Madhya Pradesh and we will be supporting the Congress in forming the next government. We have informed the Congress about this," Samajwadi Party leader Kiranmoy Nanda told IANS.
Party sources said they were in informal touch with the Mayawati-led BSP, which is leading in two seats, to also support the Congress in government formation.
According to latest trends, Congress and its ally Gondwana Gantantra Party (GGP) were leading in 112 seats while the BJP was leading in 110 in the 230-member Assembly.
