HARYANA VIDHAN SABHA ELECTION RESULTS 90 SEATS
BJP: 48
CONGRESS: 37
INDEPENDENT: 3
Indian National Lok Dal (INLD): 2
Aam Aadmi Party (AAP): 0
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Tuesday won a historic third mandate in Haryana after security 48 seats in the 90-member assembly.
The party's performance surpassed even its 2014 breakthrough, when the BJP first came to power on its own.
Both its seat share and vote share, 53.3% and 39.9% respectively are the highest ever for the party in any assembly election in the state.
In the 2019 assembly polls, the BJP won 40 seats out of 90, and its vote share was 36.49%. The Congress, meanwhile, had a 28.08% vote share for its 31 seats.
Bucking anti-incumbency, the ruling party in the state has retained power and even increased their seats and vote share from last time.
From the Julana seat, Congress's Vinesh Phogat registered a victory, defeating her nearest BJP rival, Yogesh Kumar, by a margin of 6,015 votes.
Aam Aadmi Party gets just 1.76% of vote share despite contesting all 90 assembly constituencies. They polled votes even less than none of the above (NOTA) option in many places.
Except for AAP candidate Adarsh Pal Singh who ended up third with 43,813 votes in Jagadhri constituency all its 87 candidates are set to forfeit their security deposit.
On the Pehowa seat that Kejriwal termed the “sasural” of Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann, AAP candidate Gehal Singh Sandhu polled just 890 of the 1.28 lakh votes.
