Modi resigns from Vadodara seat, Mulayam retains Azamgarh

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has resigned from Vadodara Lok Sabha seat, that means he has preferred  Varanasi over his home state Gujarat's Vadodara seat,  where the BJP has registered a historical and landslide victory bagging whopping 71 of the 80 seats in the recently concluded lok sabha polls. BJP's ally Apna Dal has also won both seats they contested.

Samajwadi Party chief Mulayam Singh Yadav has also submitted a resignation from Mainpuri Lok Sabha seat as he retained Azamgarh.

As per the rules, MP who has been elected from two Lok Sabha seats has to left one of the seats within 14 days of the vote counting.

With Lok Sabha results out on May 16, today was the last day of leaving the constituency. 

According to sources, Mulayam Singh's grandson may contest from SP's strong bastion Mainpuri. While, it will be interesting to see that who will contest from Vadodara which Modi had to left after beating Congress leader Madhusudhan Mistry by around 5.70 lakh votes.
