The counting of votes cast for the Lok Sabha elections has started. NDA is leading in early trends. Apart from this, the India alliance is also giving a strong fight. If we talk about Punjab, here the Congress is getting great response in the initial trends.

In the initial trends, Congress is seen at the forefront and AAP is behind. Right now, the most talked about is Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann's claim of 13-0. Let us tell you that Mann had claimed that AAP will win all the Lok Sabha seats in Punjab, but the trends so far are pointing to something else.

Congress, which won 8 seats last time, is hoping for a better performance this time. However, it will take some time for the situation to become clear.

Aam Aadmi Party is leading from Hoshiarpur, Anandpur Sahib and Sangrur in trends. Congress is leading from Gurdaspur, Amritsar, Jalandhar, Ludhiana, Fatehgarh Sahib, Ferozepur and Patiala. In which the seat of Charanjit Singh Channi from Jalandhar is almost certain. Amritpal Singh is leading from Khadur Sahib by a significant margin (54000). Sarabjit Khalsa from Faridkot is next (26000).
