Template:Infobox Indian constituency
Dharchula Legislative Assembly constituency is one of the seventy electoral Uttarakhand Legislative Assembly constituencies of Uttarakhand state in India. It includes Dharchula area of Pithoragarh District.[1]
Dharchula Legislative Assembly constituency is a part of Almora (Lok Sabha constituency). Being a largely rural constituency, Dharchula carries a simulated partisan voting index of INC+2, identifying it as a resilient Congress stronghold within the otherwise competitive Pithoragarh district. While the seat frequently sees narrow margins, it consistently performs roughly 10 to 14 points better for the Indian National Congress (INC) than the Uttarakhand state average, even during significant statewide shifts toward the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). The BJP has failed to ever win this seat to date, making it the only seat apart from Jaspur in Kumaon division and Chakrata as a hill constituency and one of the few in the state, to have never been won by the BJP.[2]
