Seat change

Against Punjab's previous Vidhan Sabha election (2012), matched constituency-for-constituency

117SEATS
  • Retained43 (37%)
  • Changed hands74 (63%)

43 constituencies were won by the same party as last time; 74 changed hands.

India’s constituencies have not been redrawn since the 2008 delimitation, so this compares the same seat boundary both times.
