New Delhi: Shambhu Nath Pandey of Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) has registered victory in Brahampur Vidhan Sabha seat. Pandey bagged 52,776 votes.
The counting of votes for Brahampur Vidhan Sabha seat started at 8 AM. The constituency went to polls on October 28 in the first phase of Bihar Assembly Elections 2020.
Ranjan Kumar Tiwari from Rashtrawadi Jansangh, Jatadhari from Bahujan Samaj Party, Hulas Pandey from Lok Jan Shakti Party were in the fray from Brahampur Vidhan Sabha seat.
The BJP had given the Brahampur seat to the Vikassheel Insaan Party (VIP) candidate, which had joined the NDA in October.
In 2015, Shambhu Nath Singh Yadav of RJD had registered victory from the Brahmapur seat. Yadav had defeated BJPs’ Vivek Thakur.
In 2015, JD-U managed to bag 23 out of 78 seats. But it was a part of Mahagathbandhan, therefore, the Muslim community voted in support of the party. The equation is likely to change as JD-U is again a part of the NDA. RJD won 20 seats while Congress 11 seats and the BJP managed to win 20 seats.
