From Modi to Yogi and Rahul to Priyanka, the recently concluded Assembly elections to four states and a Union Territory saw a number of high-profile leaders from the BJP, Congress, and a handful of other parties attend campaign rallies and hold roadshows.

The Congress only managed to form the government in Tamil Nadu, where it is a part of the DMK-led alliance. In Bengal, advice from state BJP leaders and cadres were often ignored, and the lack of a known face led to the party's loss. Here is a look at 10 leaders whose campaigning failed to make an impact.
