The results of the Sikkim Assembly elections, held alongside the Lok Sabha elections 2024, were announced on Sunday, June 2. The Congress party faced a major setback, receiving fewer votes than the NOTA (None of the Above) option. Chief Minister Prem Singh Tamang’s party, the Sikkim Krantikari Morcha (SKM), achieved a significant victory, winning 31 out of 32 seats. The Sikkim Democratic Front (SDF), led by former CM Pawan Kumar Chamling, secured only one seat. Voting for Sikkim’s 32 Assembly seats and one Lok Sabha seat took place on April 19 in the first phase.
