Amanpur

Overview & 2022 Context

Amanpur, Assembly Constituency number 101 in Kasganj district, produced a landslide verdict in the 2022 Uttar Pradesh polls. HARIOM of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) finished first with 96,377 votes (50.17%), defeating SATYABHAN (SP), who polled 53,048 (27.61%). The victory margin was 43,329 votes. Of 310,854 electors, 192,108 votes were polled and turnout stood at 61.8%.

The 2022 Uttar Pradesh Legislative Assembly election was a bipolar contest between the BJP-led NDA and the Samajwadi Party–led front. Campaign discourse centred on law-and-order and welfare delivery versus unemployment, inflation, farm distress and the stray-cattle problem, as widely reported during the polls; the BJP retained power while the SP improved its seat tally as the principal opposition. In this Legislative Assembly segment, the local verdict hinged on candidate networks and booth-level conversion as much as alliance symbols. Leading contenders by votes included: HARIOM (BJP, 96,377 / 50.17%); SATYABHAN (SP, 53,048 / 27.61%); SUBHASH CHANDRA (BSP, 35,372 / 18.41%); DIVYA SHARMA (INC, 1,342 / 0.7%).

Campaign noise statewide does not erase the arithmetic of this Legislative Assembly segment: the gap between HARIOM and SATYABHAN is the binding fact for seat 101, and every other claim about caste blocs or welfare messaging has to be tested against that published margin of 43,329 votes.

Geographical & Administrative Profile

Kasganj lies in western Uttar Pradesh, linking the Upper Doab and Yamuna–Ganga plain economies. District headquarters at Kasganj anchors administration; sugarcane, wheat and peri-urban markets shape livelihoods alongside highway and rail corridors toward Delhi NCR. Administratively, Amanpur is Legislative Assembly number 101 under Kasganj (headquarters: Kasganj). Like neighbouring segments, it mixes rural habitations and market nodes where roads, schools, health access and welfare delivery travel with voters as strongly as statewide narratives.

Geography here is not ornamental for election reading. Flood plains, market roads and block headquarters shape who can mobilise, who migrates for work, and which booth clusters decide close Assembly Constituency contests. Amanpur sits inside that Kasganj administrative map even when national television talks only of alliances.

History & Past Election Trends

On the same constituency lineage, recent Legislative Assembly outcomes were — 2017: DEVENDRA PRATAP (BJP) by 41,804 votes; 2012: MAMTESH (BSP) by 3,656 votes.

Against that backdrop, the 2022 win for HARIOM (BJP) in Assembly Constituency number 101 should be read as continuity where the same camp had dominated, or as another swing where the lineage had flipped before — never by treating the serial number alone as eternal identity.

Statistics & Gender-wise Polling Analysis

Electors: 310,854. Votes polled: 192,108. Turnout: 61.8%. Winner HARIOM (BJP): 96,377 (50.17%); runner-up SATYABHAN (SP): 53,048 (27.61%); margin: 43,329 — a landslide verdict relative to total votes polled in this Assembly Constituency.

Men slightly outnumbered women among recorded voters: male 99,708 (52.2%), female 91,311 (47.8%), other 3.

Turnout 61.8% with 192,108 votes from 310,854 electors remains the participation baseline for comparing this seat with neighbouring Legislative Assembly segments in Kasganj.

Issues That Drove Voting Behavior

Statewide themes included suraksha/law-and-order messaging, labharthi welfare schemes, Hindutva-plus mobilisation, and opposition focus on jobs, price rise, farm incomes and stray cattle. In Kasganj, voters also weighed sugarcane prices, NCR connectivity, rural roads, urban services. a landslide verdict for HARIOM (BJP) against SATYABHAN (SP) suggests the winner’s camp converted a broader preference in seat 101.

None of those themes automatically explain every booth. The usable conclusion for Amanpur is narrower: HARIOM (BJP) outpolled SATYABHAN (SP) by 43,329 votes under 61.8% turnout, and that is the 2022 mandate recorded for Assembly Constituency number 101.

Reading 2022 carefully means separating statewide wave talk from booth-level conversion in Amanpur. HARIOM (BJP) converted 96,377 votes; SATYABHAN (SP) had 53,048. Turnout 61.8% and margin 43,329 in seat 101 signal organisational reach across polling stations rather than a single-day mood swing alone.

For journalists and researchers, the safer frame is lineage continuity plus the published 2022 table: electors 310,854, votes polled 192,108, and the head-to-head between HARIOM and SATYABHAN. District cues in Kasganj still matter — roads, floods, farm prices, migration and welfare delivery — but they must be weighed against what the EVM count actually recorded in this Assembly Constituency / Legislative Assembly seat.
