4-2: Sukhu stays afloat as Congress rebels sink in Himachal assembly bypolls

Hindustan Times  

The Bharatiya Janata Party sweep in the Lok Sabha notwithstanding, the Congress had reasons to cheer in Himachal as the party won four of the six assembly seats in the keenly contested assembly bypolls – Dharamshala, Sujanpur, Barsar, Lahaul-Spiti, Gagret and Kutlehar. Supporters celebrating Congress’ win in the assembly bypolls at the CM Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu’s official residence, the Oak Over, Shimla, on Tuesday. Notably, Congress’ strength in the House had come down from 40 to 34 after six rebels and the three independents in question had joined the BJP after the tumultuous Rajya Sabha polls held in February. Besides BJP’s Mandi Lok Sabha candidate Kangana Ranaut’s remarks against Buddhist spiritual leader Dalai Lama also did not augur well in Buddhist-dominated regions in tribal Kinnaur and Lahaul and Spiti district. Congress candidate Vivek Sharma wrested Kutlehar, once a BJP stronghold, from BJP’s Devender Bhutto with a comfortable margin of 5,356 votes.
