Election results: Early trends show BJP surging ahead in Gujarat, Congress edges past in Himachal Pradesh

Election results: As predicted by poll pundits, the Bharatiya Janat Party was surging ahead in Gujarat while initial trends in Himachal Pradesh showed the Congress edging past the saffron party.

As early trends started coming in from Gujarat, BJP was leading in 98, Congress in 19 , AAP in 4.  

Gujarat has 182 seats, the majority mark stands at 92.

Can AAP make a dent?

The election result will determine if the Aam Aadmi Party which launched an aggressive campaign to make it a three-cornered contest for the first time in Gujarat, will be able to establish itself as a challenger to the BJP at the national level.

Besides, the results of the by-elections in six assembly constituencies in five states and the high-profile Lok Sabha seat of Samajwadi Party leader Mulayam Singh Yadav in Mainpuri will be also counted.
