Uttar Pradesh Voting

An MLA in Uttar Pradesh found himself in a piquant situation when a 43-year-old petrol pump attendant asked him for his help in getting married because he had voted for him. A video of the exchange is now going viral.

Akhilesh Yadav has underlined his distrust of EVMs, or Electronic Voting Machines, stating he would be loath to change his opinion even if he were to win all of Uttar Pradesh's 80 Lok Sabha seats.

In Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Jharkhand, Karnataka, Manipur, and Rajasthan, where the BJP registered most of its seat losses, its drop in votes was at least five percentage points.

Even most conservative estimates had said that the NDA will comfortably touch 350 seats. The actual tally turned out to be over 50 seats less than that.

Lok Sabha election results: Mayawati's BSP contested 79 seats in UP election and won zero, but a 9.3 per cent vote share, if it had allied with the opposition, could have created more instability in the widely-expected incoming BJP-led NDA government

This election has been a moment of reckoning for everyone who wore arrogance as a second skin. It won't be hyperbolic to say that the humble, vulnerable, taken-for-granted voter had the last word, delivering a coup de grace.

The talk of a 'Congress-mukt Bharat', which had been the leitmotif of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) since it ousted the former in 2014, is now moot. On the other hand, Narendra Modi and the BJP's pan-India dominance has been reaffirmed again.

Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav won the Kannauj Lok Sabha seat in Uttar Pradesh on Tuesday by a margin of 1,70,000 votes over his nearest rival and BJP MP Subrata Pathak.

The debate will continue in the coming days over which of these four pillars caved in and by how much. But one fact has been cemented yet again: there is a 'sell-by' date for every product.

The Samajwadi Party is leading the INDIA opposition bloc's charge in the politically key state of Uttar Pradesh, which sends 80 MPs to the Lok Sabha and is the heart of the BJP's Hindi belt vote base.

Modi is known to be a good listener, who gives extended time for solutions to problems he is interested in. Elections over, the Prime Minister needs to focus on taking everyone along.

This was one of the tougher phases for the BJP in 2019 as it could win just 44% of the seats on offer.

A viral video from Uttar Pradesh, in which a youngster is seen voting for the BJP candidate eight times, sparked a massive row as 49 Lok Sabha seats voted in the fifth phase of the general election.

As 49 seats across six states and two Union Territories vote today in the fifth phase of the Lok Sabha election, three groups of villagers -- two in Uttar Pradesh and one in Jharkhand -- have stayed away from the polling booth

A man has been arrested in Uttar Pradesh's Etah district after a video surfaced on Sunday on social media in which he was seen voting multiple times, an official said.
