The second phase of the Lok Sabha elections 2024 will see crores of people cast votes in 88 seats across India.
Many key and high-profile seats where voting will be held in the second phase include Wayanad, Bangalore South, Mathura, Mysore, and Thiruvananthapuram, to name a few.
How did some of these key seats vote in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections?
In Bangalore Central, the BJP's PC Mohan won by over six lakh votes to his nearest rival, the Congress's Rizwan Arshad, who polled 5.3 lakh votes.
In Uttar Pradesh's Mathura, the BJP's Hema Malini received 6.71 lakh votes, against her nearest rival Kunwar Narendra Singh of the Rashtriya Lok Dal (RLD), who polled 3.7 lakh votes.

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi won from Kerala's Wayanad in 2019; he polled 7 lakh votes. His nearest rival PP Suneer from the Communist Part of India came second with 2.7 lakh votes.
In Madhya Pradesh, BJP leader Virendra Kumar Khatik is eyeing a fourth win from Tikamgarh. The Congress has fielded a new face, Pankaj Ahirwar, from the constituency. In 2019, Mr Khatik defeated Congress's Kiran Ahirwar by a margin of over 3.48 lakh votes.
