Voters in three key constituencies will learn who won Monday, with results influencing state politics ahead of future elections.
Results from three assembly by-elections, held on July 30, will be declared on Monday.
The constituencies are Bankipur in Bihar, Datia in Madhya Pradesh, and Manjalpur in Gujarat.

The BJP denied a ticket to former minister Narottam Mishra, who had lost the seat in 2023, leading to protests and clashes.
Mishra later pledged support for the BJP candidate, Ashutosh Tiwari, who faces Congress nominee Ghanshyam Singh. Analysts say the result could shape the standing of both parties ahead of the 2028 state elections.

The court asked why the Election Commission should not create guidelines to prevent this.
