Uttar Pradesh Bypoll Results

A week after the INDIA alliance said it will contest next year's Lok Sabha election "together", the "as far as possible" addendum has become evident in bypolls in Kerala, Uttarakhand and Bengal, where INDIA members are fighting each other.

The second and final phase of polling for Gujarat elections ended this evening. The voting took place in 93 constituencies across 14 districts of the state.

The BJP has won in Uttar Pradesh's Gola Gokrannath, Haryana's Adampur, and is leading in Odisha's Dhamnagar. The party also retained Bihar's Gopalganj assembly seat which falls in the home district of party leader and former Chief Minister Lalu Yadav

The Bharatiya Janata Party emerged victorious in four of the seven assembly seats whose results were declared today. Uddhav Thackeray's faction won its first election after a BJP-backed coup led by Eknath Shinde split Shiv Sena.

The BJP has continued to impress in Uttar Pradesh, winning seven out of the 11 assembly seats that went to bypolls on Monday.

The BJP emerged victorious in seven seats in bypolls to 11 Assembly constituencies, with its ally Apna Dal picking up an eighth in Pratapgarh. The opposition Samajwadi Party claimed three seats, including that of Zaidpur, which was held by the BJP, and also retained the Rampur constituency

The counting of votes is completed for four assembly seats where by elections were held earlier this week. Uttar Pradesh's Hamirpur, Chhattisgarh's Dantewada, Kerala's Pala and Tripura's Badharghat went to polls on September 23.

The alliance between Uttar Pradesh rivals-turned-partners Mayawati and Akhilesh Yadav is all but over. Mayawati gave the indication in a meeting of her Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP), in which she said the party would contest 11 assembly by-polls alone, according to sources.

The electoral losses suffered by the BJP in the recently held by-elections in Kairana and Noorpur seats in Uttar Pradesh may have given the opposition a reason to smile, but BJP leaders believe they are "down but not out".

After BJP's loss in bypolls in Kairana, Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav said it was a defeat for those who do not believe in democracy. He also said the people of the state taught the BJP a lesson for "betraying them." He said it was a victory for the "farmers, the neglected, the poor and the Dalits".

Begum Tabassum Hasan, the candidate who represented the opposition's hopes for besting the BJP in another Uttar Pradesh by-poll this year, won from the most-watched Kairana Lok Sabha seat.
