Punjab Elections: AAP Secures Three Seats Amidst Fierce Competition

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in Punjab managed to win only three Lok Sabha seats, failing to meet CM Bhagwant Mann's goal of securing all 13 constituencies. The Congress won six seats and is leading in one, while the Shiromani Akali Dal won one seat. AAP's performance showed an improvement compared to the 2019 elections.

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) managed to secure victories in three Lok Sabha seats in Punjab, falling short of the ambitious target set by Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann to win all 13 parliamentary constituencies in the state.

The Congress emerged stronger, winning six seats and leading in one, whereas the Shiromani Akali Dal claimed just one seat. Despite a strategic move to contest separately from their INDIA bloc ally, the Congress, AAP improved its position from its 2019 performance, where it could bag only one seat.

Leading AAP's charge, candidates Gurmeet Singh Meet Hayer, Malwinder Singh Kang, and Raj Kumar Chabbewal won in Sangrur, Anandpur Sahib, and Hoshiarpur constituencies, respectively.
