All eyes on Lakhimpur Kheri in phase 4 of Uttar Pradesh polls

Said to be a Bharatiya Janata Party stronghold, 60 Assembly constituencies spread over nine districts will vote in the fourth phase of Uttar Pradesh Assembly polls on Wednesday.

In 2017, the BJP had won 50 of these 59 seats, the Samajwadi Party had bagged four and the Bahujan Samaj Party and the Congress had won two seats each. The BJP’s ally Apna Dal (Sonelal) had wrested the Jahanabad seat in the Fatehpur district.

This phase will decide who will control the heart of Uttar Pradesh, as nine constituencies of Lucknow will vote in this phase. A total of 2.13 crore voters will decide the fate of 624 candidates. A maximum of 15 are vying for the Sawayajpur constituency in the Hardoi district.
