Cong tally up, but margins in Assembly seats fall

Despite having improved its tally in the Lok Sabha polls, the state Congress has realised that the performance of at least 49 legislators has remained below par as compared to the 2017 Assembly elections.
With the exception of a few MLAs, including ministers Brahm Mohindra and Charanjit Singh Channi, who have managed better results in their respective segments, others have faired poorly.
Senior leaders say though the party has emerged stronger with its vote share rising to 40.15 per cent from 38.5 per cent in 2017, there is a need to introspect reasons behind poor performance in many segments, be it anti-incumbency or disconnect with the electorate.
