About
The results of the 2022 Vidhan Sabha elections in the North Indian state of Punjab represent a significant watershed moment, marking a distinct departure from traditional voting patterns involving the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) and the Indian National Congress (INC). These data capture the emergence of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) with a substantial majority, reflecting the evolving mindset of the Punjabi population—both young and old. The election backdrop includes critical modern challenges such as unemployment, the drug menace, and the farm crisis, alongside growing global aspirations.
