BJP's stunning performance in Uttar Pradesh bypolls

In Uttar Pradesh, the BJP won decisive victories in the state's bypolls. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath credited the win to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, saying the results signalled the downfall of the Samajwadi Party (SP)-Bharat Bloc's "politics of loot and lies".

The BJP emerged victorious in seven of the nine assembly seats, including Ghaziabad, Khair and Phulpur, while the Samajwadi Party claimed victory in Shishmau and Karhal.

BJP dominates Rajasthan bypolls

The Congress retained the Dausa seat, while the Bharat Adivasi Party (BAP) won the Chorasi seat. These results reflect the BJP's continued strength in the state despite local challenges.

In Gujarat, the BJP wrested the Vav assembly seat from the Congress in a close contest. BJP's Swarupji Thakor won by a margin of 2,442 votes over Congress' Gulab Singh Rajput. Thakor pulled ahead in the final round of counting, ensuring BJP's dominance in the state.

NDA sweeps Bihar bypolls

The ruling National Democratic Alliance (NDA) in Bihar won four assembly seats in the state's bypolls. The NDA retained the Imamganj seat and wrested Tarari, Ramgarh and Belagnj from opposition party India Bloc. A notable result was the poor performance of Jan Suraj, a new party led by political strategist Prashant Kishor, which failed to win a single seat.

TMC sweeps West Bengal bypolls

The Trinamool Congress (TMC) in West Bengal swept the state's bypolls, retaining five seats and wresting the Madarihat seat from the BJP. By-elections were held in six constituencies- Naihati, Haroa, Medinipur, Taldangra, Sitai (SC) and Madarihat (ST) after the MLAs vacated their seats following victory in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. The result has further strengthened the political hold of the TMC in West Bengal.
