Gujarat Election Results 2022: BJP claims victory on seats it had never won before

Borsad (in the Anand district), Jhagadia (in Bharuch), Vyara (in Tipi), Garbada (in Dahod), Mahudha (in Kheda), Anklav (in Anand), and Danilimda first (Ahmedabad district) are some of the constituencies, where BJP swept the polls and got good number of votes.
