Election Results 2024 LIVE: BJP’s Astonishing Maharashtra Triumph, JMM+ Poised for Historic Jharkhand Victory
Election Results 2024 Summary:
As the 2024 election results unfold, Congress secured a notable victory in Karnataka with Yasir Ahmed Khan Pathan winning the Shiggaon bypoll, defeating Bharath Bommai by 13,448 votes. In Maharashtra, the Mahayuti alliance, led by the BJP, is poised for a landslide victory, with Deputy CM Devendra Fadnavis and CM Eknath Shinde celebrating the alliance’s success. Fadnavis’ mother expressed confidence in his future role as Chief Minister, while festivities erupted across the state.
Priyanka Gandhi Vadra of Congress leads significantly in Wayanad with over 3 lakh votes, indicating a record win. Contrastingly, NCP candidate Fahad Ahmed is trailing in Mumbai’s Anushakti Nagar constituency. In another significant race, Congress’ C P Yogeeshwara triumphed in Channapatna, Karnataka, over JD(S) candidate Nikhil Kumaraswamy by 25,413 votes.
In Bihar, the JD(U)’s Manorama Devi won the Belaganj assembly bypoll, beating the RJD’s Vishwanath Kumar Singh by 21,391 votes. On a national level, the INDIA bloc crossed the majority mark in Jharkhand Assembly elections, while BJP’s influence remained strong, notably leading in five out of nine bypolls in Uttar Pradesh.
The overall turnout in Maharashtra was a remarkable 65.02%, the highest since 1995. However, the Congress party emerged as a weaker link in the INDIA bloc given its poor conversion rate of contested seats. Celebrations are underway for several BJP figures, such as Dhananjay Munde, who maintained a substantial lead from the Parli constituency.
As the results caused ripples across political landscapes, leaders like Robert Vadra emphasized learning from the people’s mandate, while concerns of conspiracy were raised by Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut over the election outcomes in Maharashtra.
