Information
A BJP win in the second Goa seat too
In Valpoi, BJP's Vishwajit Rane won by a margin of 10,066 votes. Rane was earlier holding this seat as a Congress leader, but then defected to the BJP.
Delhi
In Bawana, it was a three-way prestige battle
The Bawana bypoll was necessitated as AAP's Ved Parkash quit to re-join BJP.
Congress' Surender Kumar was leading earlier. However, after eight rounds of counting, AAP pushed it to second place.
A win would have boosted the fledgling Congress, which has suffered a string of electoral defeats.
A win for the BJP (Parkash) would have increased its presence in the Assembly.
Andhra Pradesh
In Nandyal, ruling TDP to taste another victory
Nandyal in Andhra fell vacant after the death of the sitting MLA. The ruling TDP looks set to gain the seat.
As CM Chandrababu Naidu (TDP) and Leader of Opposition YS Jaganmohan Reddy (YSR) led the charge for their parties, the Congress has been reduced to a mere spectator.
YSR's Silpa Mohan Reddy and Congress' Abdul Khader have been left behind by over 2,800 votes.
