Much like many constituencies, there is a neck and neck competition between Samajwadi Party and the Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) in Balrampur as well. While the former has fielded Jagram Paswan who is currently trailing behind by 7,543 votes, while the latter has Palturam as the candidate who is leading. Both SP and BJP have the same strike rate, and it will be interesting to see whose strike rate goes up this time.
BJP defeated Congress by a considerable margin of 24860 votes in 2017 with Palturam as a candidate. It would be interesting to see if BJP repeats its victory this time around as well, or gets defeated at the hands of SP's Jagram Paswan.
BJP seems to have a stronghold in Balrampur for the last five years. Palturam is a popular face in the assembly constituency, as he defeated Congress party's Shivlal by a good margin back in 2017.
