So, tomorrow voting begins. AAP going to break all the records for maximum deposit loss in general elections. Post the constituency and candidate details in this thread.

What is the criteria for deposit loss? I mean is it determined by some percentage of voting or numbers?
If someone gets less than 1/6th of the total votes cast in a constituency then he/she loses their deposit.

a contestant will only loose his deposit when he loses and doesn’t get at least 1/6th of valid votes. For example, if there are 60000 valid votes polled in a constituency where there are two contestants, A and B. For B to lose his security deposit, A has to get atleast 50000 votes. http://eci.nic.in/archive/handbook/returning-officer/rch16/rch16_1.htm

That sounds incorrect by the definition.. By definition in first sentence, it soundz like B should get at least 10,000 votes or else he loses his deposit.

Yup, thats the law. B losing his deposit doesn't depend on number of votes A gets but rather on the number of votes B himself gets.

It wld be too much to update deposit loss candidates, but its very easy to update deposit unlost candidates. As of now deposit unlost count delhi(7)+varanasi (1) + Amethi (1) + gaizabad (1) = 10
