Assembly election results 2022: List of top winners and losers

Counting of votes is underway in five states-- Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Goa, Manipur and Uttarakhand. As per the current trends, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is headed for a second consecutive win in UP whereas the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has entered Punjab with a bang.  

In the other three states except Punjab, BJP is emerging as the dominant force. The grand old Congress has failed to secure double-digit seats in all other states except Punjab, as per the current trends.  

Meanwhile, Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut was quoted as saying by news agency ANI, “Congress party has lost badly in these elections. We didn’t get the expected results. In Punjab, people got another option and elected AAP. BJP’s win is a victory of their election management too.”
