Hadoti stood with the BJP. In the Hadoti region, the BJP maintained its dominance by securing victory in 11 out of 17 seats. Moreover, the party managed to snatch one more seat from Congress, further consolidating its hold in the area.
Hadoti region includes Kota district, Bundi district, Jhalawar district and Baran district of Rajasthan State.
Hadoti election results highlights
The vote counting began at 8 am amid rain. The workers’ enthusiasm appeared to fluctuate with the trends. By 1.30 pm, the situation on 17 seats of Hadoti was almost clear.
Like every time, former Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje’s victory from Jhalrapatan in the Jhalawar district was one-sided.
But it was surprising that the Khanpur seat in the Jhalawar district went to Congress candidate Suresh Gurjar. This breach in the BJP stronghold area has great significance.
In Kota district, the situation of maximum drama was in Kota North. Shanti Dhariwal, a minister of the Congress government, kept moving up and down in trends. Ultimately he won the fort by 2486 votes. The eyes of the entire city were fixed on Dhariwal who was seeking votes based on development. Congress also broke the myth of victory once and defeat once.
Another interesting seat was of Pipalda, where Youth Congress candidate Chetan Patel won. Here his good image defied caste equations.
Sandeep Sharma of BJP won in Kota South. The election pundits kept saying that there would be a tough fight with Rakhi Gautam of Congress but Sharma won with more votes than last time.
As expected, Sangod, Ramganjmandi and Ladpura remained in BJP’s bag.
However, in Ladpura the matter had earlier become triangular, which the BJP took over at the last moment. At the same time, Congress leader Pankaj Mehta joining BJP also caused a loss to Congress here.
