New Delhi, Aug 20 (IANS): The ruling Congress is likely to see its support erode in Chhattisgarh's northern region, where the Bharatiya Janata Party is likely to emerge as a major player with an 11 per cent vote swing in its favour, as per the ABP-CVoter Chhattisgarh Opinion Poll.

In the previous election, the saffron party secured a 32.8 per cent vote share in the region.

However, according to the survey, the BJP might garner a 43.8 per cent vote share this time, while the Congress may experience a decrease in vote share of more than three per cent.
