BJP candidate Madhavlal Singh is leading over his nearest JMM rival Babita Devi by 2600 votes in Gomia Assembly seat after fifth round of counting, EC sources said. JMM candidate Seema Mahto is leading over his AJSU president Sudesh Mahto by 3900 votes in Silli Assembly seat after fifth round of counting. The by-poll in both Gomia and Silli Assembly seats were necessitated following conviction of Yogendra Mahto (Gomia) and Amit Mahto (Silli) who won on JMM tickets in the last Assembly elections.
