Congress will win bypolls conducted on all the three seats, Gehlot said talking to reporters in Kota on Tuesday.

Information of all rounds of counting will be available on department’s website, a spokesperson said.
Bypolls were necessitated in these three seats due to the deaths of the sitting lawmakers. Ajmer MP Sanwar Lal Jat, Alwar MP Chand Nath and Mandalgarh MLA Kirti Kumari (all of BJP) passed away last year.
