The bypoll, voting for which was held on May 10, was necessitated following the death of Karamjit Kaur's husband and Congress MP Santokh Singh Chaudhary on January 14 this year following a cardiac arrest while taking part in the party's Bharat Jodo Yatra.
The Aam Aadmi Party candidate Sushil Rinku on Saturday won the bypoll from the Jalandhar Lok Sabha constituency which was considered a Congress stronghold for the past 24 years.
AAP's Sushil Rinku is leading by more than 52000 votes over nearest rival Congress' Karamjit Kaur Chaudhary, as per the latest data available on ECI's official website at 12:25 pm.
On Wednesday, hours after being expelled from the Congress, Sushil Rinku joined Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in the presence of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and his Punjab counterpart Bhagwant Mann.
