Manipur winners list: The counting of votes for assembly elections in Manipur, along with four other states- Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Goa and Uttarakhand, will be underway from 8:00 am onwards today (March 10).
In the previous polls in 2017 Manipur Assembly elections, the state witnessed a hung Assembly. The BJP had secured 21 seats in 2017 and wrested power for the first time after stitching together a coalition government with the support of four NPP MLAs, four Naga People's Front (NPF) members, the lone Trinamool Congress MLA and an Independent member. However, this time the BJP, NPP and NPF are contesting separately and have fielded candidates against each other. Congress, which governed the state for 15 consecutive years (2002-2017) and emerged as the single largest party by securing 28 seats in 2017, this time formed a Manipur Progressive Secular Alliance (MPSA) after forging a pre-poll alliance with four Left parties and Janata Dal-Secular.
For Manipur, here is the full list of winners.
