Counting of votes is underway in three Lok Sabha and 33 Assembly seats across 10 states where by polls were held last week. BJP experience jolts just after the grand success in the lok sabha election polls 2014, it seems like the Modi waves gone. the updates are:
Congress wins 3 out of four seats in Rajasthan
BJP candidate Vimla Batham wins from Noida Assembly seat
Mulayam Singh’s grandson Tej Pratap Yadav wins from Mainpuri Lok Sabha seat by 3 lakh votes.
Congress candidate declared winner from Rajasthan’s Naseerabad constituency after recounting.
SP candidate wins UP’s Bijnor Assembly seat by 11,567 votes.
SP’s Shiv Sharan Prajapati wins from Hamirpur seat in UP by 68,330 votes
Gujarat bypolls tally: BJP wins six assembly seats, Congress gets 3; Vadodara Lok Sabha seat goes to the BJP.
BJP suffered a jolt in Rajasthan winning just one of the four seats and was losing ground in Uttar Pradesh where Samajwadi Party(SP) was ahead during counting of votes in the bypolls on Tuesday exactly four months after it swept the two states in Lok Sabha elections. In Gujarat, ruling BJP could retain only six of the nine seats while Congress bagged two and was ahead in one. All the nine seats were earlier held by BJP and were vacated after their sitting MLAs were elected as MPs. The BJP, however, had a reason to smile in West Bengal where it made its debut in the state assembly on its own by winning the Basirhat Dakshin seat.
