Charanjit Singh Channi of INC has won the seat in Chamkaur Sahib by securing 61060 votes.
The main candidates from Chamkaur Sahib were Rajinder Singh (BSP), Charanjit Singh (AAP) and Charanjit Singh Channi (INC) and Justice Nirmal Singh (SAD).
In 2012, the state had voted in favour of the BJP-Akali Dal combine, bringing Parkash Singh Badal back to power.
Two time sitting MLAs — Congress Legislature Party Leader Charanjit Singh Channi And Justice Nirmal Singh (Retd) — are contesting.
This time the ruling combine faced off against a resurgent Congress and the debutant Aam Aadmi Party. The state was the first to vote among the five states that went to the polls this time. Elections to the 117-seat Punjab assembly were held on February 4.
Exit polls had predicted a drubbing for the BJP-Akali Dal combine in the state with the Congress and the AAP predicted to be neck-and-neck.
