BJP leader Dinesh Arya has been elected unopposed to the Rajya Sabha from Uttarakhand, with no candidate from the Congress or any other party contesting the seat.

H.C. Pant, the returning officer and Officer-in-Charge of the Uttarakhand Legislative Assembly, handed over the certificate of election to Mr. Arya after the deadline for withdrawal of nominations ended on Friday (October 9, 2026).
