Around 80% of voter voters in ellenabad bypoll assembly

SANSA: Voting at Bypoll to the Constituency of Ellenabad’s Assembly goes peacefully on Saturday, registering an average number of voters 80 percent, which sealed the fate of 19 candidates, officials said.
Polling remains peaceful, they add.
The percentage of voting can change because voting data is still compiled, officials said.
Ellenabad’s chair has recorded 83.6 percent of voter voters in the 2019 assembly polling.
Polls started at 7 in the morning and continued until 6pm, officials said.
Vote counting will be taken on November 2.
The Bypoll needed by Lok Lok Dal Dal (Inld) India Abhay Singh Chautala as MLA from the chair in January protested a new agricultural law.
Nineteen candidates, including Chautala, Beniwal Pawan from Congress and BJP-JJP Nominee Gobind Kanda, are in Fray in Ellenabad, which has more than 1.86 Lakh selector.
A total of 211 polling booths were arranged and 121 of them were categorized as “sensitive and hyper-sensitive”, officials said.
Strict security settings made for Bypoll as 34 paramilitary forces companies and police personnel from various districts were deployed.
Gobind Kanda, a brother of Haryana Lokhit Party and Legislator Gopal Kanda, joined Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) recently.
Beniwal, who did not succeed in fighting for the previous assembly poll against Chautala, recently switched from BJP to Congress.
Chautala, Beniwal and Kanda are locked in a triangle contest at Ellenabad Bypoll.
Beniwal did a vote in Darba Village Kalan in the morning.
Talking to reporters, Chautala emitted confidence that he would win with a record margin.
Officials said voting was carried out in accordance with Covid-19 guidelines.
Chautala has won the Rori Assembly of Bypoll at SanSa District in 2000 and the 2010 Bypoll of Ellenabad, when the Head of Inld Om Prakash Chautala emptied the chair to defend the Uchana seat in the Jind District – another electoral district in 2009 and won.
In 2010 Bypolls in Ellenabad, Abhay Chautala won a chair and defended it in 2014 too.
He returned to win from Ellenabad in the 2019 assembly poll, when he was MLA who was alone to enter the house.
Winning the Bypoll is very important for Chautala as a defeat to handle a body blow to Innd, which in recent years staggered under a series of election setbacks.
The main part of the Ellenabad Assembly constituency is rural with people who mostly rely on agriculture.
This is the second Bypoll in Haryana in a year.
In November last year, the main opposition congress had maintained a Baroda assembly seat after his candidate Indu Raj Narwal beat BJP Nominee and Olympian Wrestler Yogeshwar Dutt.
Baroda’s chair in the Sonipat district has fallen in vacancy after the death of the Mla Sri Krishan Hooda congress.
