The Bharatiya Janata Party's Chandrabhanu Paswan won the Milkipur assembly bypoll in Uttar Pradesh by a margin of 61,710 votes over his Samajwadi Party rival, Ajit Prasad.
LUCKNOW/CHENNAI: The Bharatiya Janata Party's Chandrabhanu Paswan won the Milkipur assembly bypoll in Uttar Pradesh by a margin of 61,710 votes over his Samajwadi Party rival, Ajit Prasad. In Tamil Nadu's Erode East constituency, the ruling Dravida Munnetra Kazhgam emerged victorious with VC Chandhirakumar winning the assembly bypoll with a margin of 90,629 votes.
The Milkipur bypoll was necessitated after local MLA Awadhesh Prasad vacated the seat following his Faizabad win in the 2024 Lok Sabha polls. The SP fielded his son, Ajit Prasad, in the bypoll even as BJP opted for a party cadre Paswan, both from the Pasi community. While Paswan polled 146,397 votes, Prasad garnered 84,687 votes, data from the Election Commission showed.
