Jyotiraditya Scindia congratulates BJP's winning candidates, thanks voters
As Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) took a lead in Madhya Pradesh by-polls, party leader Jyotiraditya Scindia on Tuesday congratulated all the winning candidates and thanked the voters as well.
"Heartiest congratulations to all the candidates of the Bharatiya Janata Party who won the MP Assembly by-elections. At the same time, heartfelt gratitude to all the devout voters. I am confident that all the winning candidates will always be ready for public service and proper development of their constituency," Scindia tweeted (roughly translated from Hindi).
"Congratulations and best wishes to BJP candidate Hardeep Dang Ji for winning by a huge majority in the by-election of Suwasra Assembly," he added. The BJP is leading on 21 seats, while Congress and Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) are ahead on six and one seats, respectively in Madhya Pradesh by-polls, as per the Election Commission of India (ECI) on Tuesday.
As per the ECI at 3 pm, BJP's vote share stands at 51.3 per cent with its candidates leading in Gwalior, Gwalior East, Dabra, Bamori, Ambah, Sanwer, Bandawar and Jaura seats, among others.
Meanwhile, Congress candidates, with 39.9 per cent combined vote share, are ahead on Agar, Karera, Biaora, Sumaoli, Dimani and Gohad seats. Meanwhile, celebrations are underway at BJP headquarters in Bhopal. BJP workers and supporters, carrying banners of Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan and Jyotiraditya Scindia, danced to the tunes of dhol outside the party office.
The result of 28 assembly constituencies in Madhya Pradesh will decide the fate of Chief Minister Chouhan led-BJP government, which requires at least eight more MLAs for a clear majority in the state assembly. Jyotiraditya Scindia, a prominent face of the Congress, had resigned from the party on March 11 this year.
Scindia's decision to leave Congress was followed by the resignation of 22 party MLAs loyal to him. He later joined BJP. These resignations paved the way for BJP's Shivraj Singh Chouhan to take over as Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister for the fourth time.

Kamal Nath's hopes dashed as BJP takes lead in MP bypolls
The bypoll trends in Madhya Pradesh have dashed the hopes for former Chief Minister Kamal Nath since the BJP was leading on 19 seats till 12 .30 pm and Congress leading on just 8 and the BSP on 1 seat.
The Congress had hoped to win at least 20 seats in the bypolls but the trends indicate otherwise.
The Congress had campaigned vigorously in the bypolls in a bid to return to power in the state. The party had to win at least 22 seats to remain in the numbers game but it had not crossed the double-digit figure if counting trends are an indication.
The Kamal Nath government had fell after the revolt by Jyotiraditya Scindia with whom 25 MLAs left in March.
The Congress needed to win all 28 seats in Madhya Pradesh to regain a majority in the Assembly.
On the other hand, the ruling BJP needs only nine seats to reach the magic figure of 116.
In the 230-member Madhya Pradesh Assembly, the BJP has 107 MLAs, Congress 88, BSP 2, SP 1, and Independents 4.

Jyotiraditya Scindia congratulates BJP's winning candidates, thanks voters
As Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) took a lead in Madhya Pradesh by-polls, party leader Jyotiraditya Scindia on Tuesday congratulated all the winning candidates and thanked the voters as well.
"Heartiest congratulations to all the candidates of the Bharatiya Janata Party who won the MP Assembly by-elections. At the same time, heartfelt gratitude to all the devout voters. I am confident that all the winning candidates will always be ready for public service and proper development of their constituency," Scindia tweeted (roughly translated from Hindi).
"Congratulations and best wishes to BJP candidate Hardeep Dang Ji for winning by a huge majority in the by-election of Suwasra Assembly," he added. The BJP is leading on 21 seats, while Congress and Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) are ahead on six and one seats, respectively in Madhya Pradesh by-polls, as per the Election Commission of India (ECI) on Tuesday.
As per the ECI at 3 pm, BJP's vote share stands at 51.3 per cent with its candidates leading in Gwalior, Gwalior East, Dabra, Bamori, Ambah, Sanwer, Bandawar and Jaura seats, among others.
Meanwhile, Congress candidates, with 39.9 per cent combined vote share, are ahead on Agar, Karera, Biaora, Sumaoli, Dimani and Gohad seats. Meanwhile, celebrations are underway at BJP headquarters in Bhopal. BJP workers and supporters, carrying banners of Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan and Jyotiraditya Scindia, danced to the tunes of dhol outside the party office.
The result of 28 assembly constituencies in Madhya Pradesh will decide the fate of Chief Minister Chouhan led-BJP government, which requires at least eight more MLAs for a clear majority in the state assembly. Jyotiraditya Scindia, a prominent face of the Congress, had resigned from the party on March 11 this year.
Scindia's decision to leave Congress was followed by the resignation of 22 party MLAs loyal to him. He later joined BJP. These resignations paved the way for BJP's Shivraj Singh Chouhan to take over as Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister for the fourth time.

Kamal Nath's hopes dashed as BJP takes lead in MP bypolls
The bypoll trends in Madhya Pradesh have dashed the hopes for former Chief Minister Kamal Nath since the BJP was leading on 19 seats till 12 .30 pm and Congress leading on just 8 and the BSP on 1 seat.
The Congress had hoped to win at least 20 seats in the bypolls but the trends indicate otherwise.

The Kamal Nath government had fell after the revolt by Jyotiraditya Scindia with whom 25 MLAs left in March.
The Congress needed to win all 28 seats in Madhya Pradesh to regain a majority in the Assembly.

Madhya Pradesh BYPOLLS: The Bharatiya Janata Party has won 18 seats in Madhya Pradesh bypolls even the Congress, meanwhile, has been restricted to just a handful.
Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) won 19 seats in the by-polls held for 28 Assembly seats in Madhya Pradesh. Meanwhile, the Congress party settled for just nine seats.
The counting began from 8 am in 19 districts where the by-elections were held on November 3, an election official said.
The ruling BJP needed to win at least eight of these 28 seats to attain a simple majority in the 230-member Assembly, hose effective strength is 229.
The BJP currently has 107 MLAs, while the Congress has 87 legislators in the House.
The bypoll results were crucial for former chief minister Kamal Nath, who lost power in the state seven months ago when a section of Congress MLAs revolted against him after
Jyothiradithya Scindia quit the party and joined the BJP earlier this year.
Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, a total of 70.27 per cent voter turnout was recorded during the by-polls which were contested by 355 candidates, including 12 ministers.
The average voting percentage in the 2018 Assembly polls in these 28 seats, most of them in the Gwalior-Chambal region, was 72.93 per cent, the official said.
For the first time in Madhya Pradesh, bypolls were held in as many as 28 Assembly seats in one go.
Bypolls to 25 of these seats were necessitated as the sitting Congress MLAs quit and joined the BJP and contested the bypolls as BJP candidates.
In the remaining three Assembly segments, bypolls were held due to deaths of the sitting legislators. One more Congress MLA resigned recently.
