In the state of Jammu & Kashmir, while BJP has won in 2 constituencies while JKNC managed to win in three with one constituency going to IND candidate Sajjad Hussain. In fact, Ladakh was the only constituency where IND put up a candidate.

Srinagar and Udhampur voted during the second phase of elections on April 18. The polling in Ladakh was conducted on May 6. Since it has been declared as a highly sensitive constituency, the single seat of Anantnag went for polling in three phases on April 23, 29 and May 6, which was a record setting news in the history of Indian elections. For three years, the constituency of Anantnag remained vacant. Now the key contesting candidates working out their luck from Anantnag seat are Sofi Youssaf of BJP, Ghulam Ahmed Mir of Congress, Hasnain Masoodi of National Conference and Mehbooba Mufti of PDP.

In 2014 general elections, Mehbooba Mufti secured a thumping victory over Mirza Mehboob Beg of the National Conference. Mehbooba Mufti is contesting from Anantnag seat for the third time now. During 2014 Lok Sabha elections, the results favored two parties equally by giving three seats each from the state to BJP and PDP (People’s Democratic Party).
