Seat change

Against Uttar Pradesh's previous Vidhan Sabha election (1993), matched constituency-for-constituency

Retained148 (35%)
Changed hands266 (63%)
New seat10 (2%)

148 constituencies were won by the same party as last time; 266 changed hands. 10 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.
