Congress candidate Ghanshyam Singh won the Datia Assembly bypoll in Madhya Pradesh, defeating BJP's Ashutosh Tiwari by a margin of 6,016 votes.
Singh secured 66,757 votes against Tiwari's 60,741, marking the BJP's second consecutive bypoll loss in the state following the defeat in Sheopur.
The bypoll was necessitated by the disqualification of Congress MLA Rajendra Bharti in April following his conviction in a bank fraud and cheating case.
