First Victory for BJP in Jammu-Kashmir Elections: Basohli Seat Secured by Wide Margin

 

In a significant win for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), the party has secured its first seat in the Jammu-Kashmir Assembly elections by winning the Basohli constituency. According to the Election Commission of India’s official data, the BJP candidate triumphed with a total of 31,874 votes, defeating the nearest rival by a comfortable margin of 16,034 votes.

The Basohli seat, located in the Jammu region, is a crucial win for the BJP as it establishes a foothold in the Jammu-Kashmir Assembly elections. This result comes amid ongoing vote counting across the region, where the Congress-National Conference alliance continues to dominate with leads in over 50 seats.

The BJP’s success in Basohli marks a positive start for the party in Jammu, which has traditionally been a stronghold for the saffron brigade.
