Assam Rajya Sabha Election Vote Counting Updates, Rajya Sabha Election Latest News Updates: The results for two seats of Assam Rajya Sabha polls have been declared and the BJP and its ally UPPL have bagged both of them with the help of several Congress MLAs who either cross-voted in favour of the ruling alliance or got their votes invalidated ‘deliberately’. The counting was delayed after the Congress approached the Election Commission seeking to invalidate of votes of 5 NDA MLAs alleging that they publicly revealed their ballot papers. However, the Election Commission rejected the opposition party’s demand. The Congress party also suspended its two MLAs after one of them voted for the ruling party candidate and another ‘deliberately’ marked his ballot paper in such a way that it got cancelled. The Congress has demanded action against its MLA Sashikanta Das who was suspended earlier, BPF legislator Durgadas Boro and three BJP MLAs – Hitendra Nath Goswami, Ganesh Limbu and Sanjay Kishan. Das, who was suspended by the party in December, had on Tuesday said he will vote for the ruling BJP-led coalition candidates in the Rajya Sabha polls for the cause of development.
On the other hand, the BJP has won the lone Rajya Sabha seat from Tripura while the Left Democratic Front (LDF) bagged two of the three seats in Kerala and Congress bagged the remaining one seat.
