ABP News Bureau | 14 Mar 2018 11:39 AM (IST)
Counting for the ninth round is now over in Gorakhpur while results are available only of the first round. SP extends its lead to 8,199 votes in Phulpur Lok Sabha seat after the seventh round of counting.
The two Lok Sabha constituencies of Uttar Pradesh are crucial for the ruling BJP as they were formerly held by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath (Gorakhpur) and his deputy Keshav Prasad Maurya (Phulpur). The Bihar bypolls are seen as a litmus test for Chief Minister Nitish Kumar after he pulled out of the state's Grand Alliance and joined the BJP.
