Results of the bypolls today (27 November) in three assembly seats of West Bengal have almost handed the ruling Trinamool party in the state a clean sweep, with its candidates Tapan Deb Singha and Pradip Sarkar winning in Kaliaganj and Kharagpur Sadar.
The one respite for the party today is that its candidate Chandra Pant has emerged the winner in the Pithoragarh assembly seat of Uttarakhand, edging out Anju Lunthi of the Congress.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
