India Congress, BJP get seat each in Rajasthan by-poll
The by-election spoils were equally divided between the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the ruling Congress in Rajasthan Tuesday with each winning one seat. While the BJP's Ramesh Chand was declared elected from Todabhim, defeating his nearest Congress rival Shivdayal Meena by 8,200 votes, Basanti Meena of the Congress bagged the Salumber seat. She defeated Amrat Lal of the BJP by a margin of over 3,000 votes. The Nov 7 by-elections were necessitated after legislator Kirori Lal Meena, an independent from Todabhim, and Raghuveer Meena from Salumber vacated their seats after getting elected to the Lok Sabha. In the 2008 assembly elections Kirori Lal Meena had won from Todabhim by giving a drubbing to both the Congress and the BJP, whose candidates lost their deposits. Raghuveer Meena of the Congress had won from Salumber in 2008. With these wins, the Congress tally in the state assembly has gone up to 102 and the BJP strength is now 79. as/mj/mr ( 172 Words) 2009-11-10-11:08:27 (IANS)
