Even though the Shiromani Akali Dal (Badal) has emerged as the single largest party in terms of seats in the recently-held Vidhan Sabha elections in Punjab, the Congress continues to hold the distinction of having received the largest share of votes.

In doing so, it received over three per cent votes more than SAD. While 40.9 per cent of the total votes polled went into the kitty of the Congress, SAD received 37.09 per cent. But, despite receiving less number of votes, SAD won more seats 48 while the Congress won just 44.

It is also worthwhile to mention that while the Congress contested from all 116 seats, for which results have been declared, SAD fielded candidates from 93 seats, leaving 23 for its junior alliance partner, BJP.

Thus, if taken together, the vote share of the two alliance partners stands at 45.37 per cent, 4.47 per cent more than the Congress.

His family had bought it off the lot when it was new, and it had seen better days.Its doors, slammed shut all those years ago, seemed unlikely to open again.But Mark Rasmussen, owner of RodTech in the Yates County hamlet of Hall, knew about the car even before it had been tucked away on Wilkie's property. For years, Rasmussen believed it would have its day in the sun.That day will soon be here. .
