Counting is on for Kotdwar seat, constituency No. 41 of the Uttarakhand Legislative Assembly. (Dr) Harak Singh Rawat from BJP is leading on this seat.
The main candidates from Kotdwar were Surendra Singh Negi (INC), Dr. Harak Singh Rawat (BJP) and Renu Agarwal (BSP)
In 2012, voters in the hill state had returned a hung verdict with the Congress and the BJP winning 32 and 31 seats in the 70-seat Assembly. Infighting within the Congress had forced a trust vote in the state bringing Harish Rawat back to power.
The majority mark in the state, which voted on February 15, is 36.
Exit polls had predicted a win for the BJP in the state with most projecting it just above the majority mark.
