Next Indian Elections

In the 2024 Lok Sabha elections for the Amravati constituency, Balwant Baswant Wankhade of the Indian National Congress (INC) emerged victorious. He secured 526,271 votes, which was 44.84% of the total votes cast. The BJP candidate, Navneet Ravi Rana, was the runner-up with 506,540 votes, accounting for 43.16% of the vote share. The margin of victory for Wankhade was 19,731 votes, reflecting a narrow win in one of Maharashtra's key constituencies. The voter turnout stood at approximately 63.91%, signifying an engaged electorate.

This election marked a change from the previous 2019 outcome, where an independent candidate, Navneet Ravi Rana, had won the seat. The Amravati constituency is a Scheduled Caste reserved seat and has seen fluctuating political control over the years, including strongholds by Shiv Sena in past elections.

The 2024 results demonstrate a competitive political landscape with Congress regaining the seat from an independent incumbent, while BJP closely contested the position. The election outcome also reflects the continuing importance of female candidates in this constituency, as both leading contenders were women.
