Against Uttar Pradesh's previous Vidhan Sabha election (1977), matched constituency-for-constituency
- Retained5 (1%)
- Changed hands403 (95%)
- New seat17 (4%)
5 constituencies were won by the same party as last time; 403 changed hands. 17 did not exist at the previous election.
India’s constituencies have not been redrawn since the 2008 delimitation, so this compares the same seat boundary both times.
