Gujarat, Himachal election result LIVE: BJP leads; Rupani wins Rajkot West
ElectionResultsLive2017: The BJP is leading in 107 seats, while the Congress nominees are ahead in 74 of Gujarat’s 182 seats, show the latest trends.
Chief Minister Vijay Rupani, who earlier trailed behind his Congress rival Indranil Rajyaguru in early trends, has now taken an unassailable lead in the Rajkot West seat.
The elections for 182-seat Assembly were held on December 9 and 14, after an acrimonious campaign, which was dominated by a face-off between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Congress president Rahul Gandhi. In the 2012 elections, the BJP had won 115 seats while the Congress emerged victorious on 61 seats. The BJP has been in power in the state since 1995, winning consecutive elections in the home state of Modi and BJP chief Amit Shah.

The exit polls also predicted that the BJP would wrest Himachal Pradesh from the Congress. As reported earlier, all survey agencies, barring ABP-CSDS, predicted a sweep for the BJP in the hill state, where the elections were held on November 9. The ABP-CSDS survey predicted a BJP victory, with the Congress running it close in the 68-member Assembly.
