Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 93.5% of votes; the other 10 candidates 5.8% between them.

    (52,868 + 47,071) ÷ 1,06,847 = 93.5% · 6,236 ÷ 1,06,847 = 5.8%
  2. Turnout of 86.5% was 6.9 pp below the state's median seat (93.4%).

    86.5 − 93.4 = −6.9
  3. The margin narrowed from 13.0 pp in 2021 to 5.4 pp.

    5.4 − 13.0 = −7.6 pp
  4. The seat changed hands: AITC in 2021, BJP in 2026.
