BJP wins riot-hit Muzaffarnagar bypolls, Congress bags Deoband
The BJP has won the Muzaffarnagar bypolls with a margin of 4000 votes. The party had gone all out to woo voters from the riot-hit constituency that has been under the ruling Samajwadi Party since 2013.
BJP MP and riot-accused Jat leader Sanjeev Balyan had extensively campaigned in the run up to the elections. In yet another setback to the Samajwadi Party, Congress won the Deoband constituency - after 27 years.
