SourceTrivedi Centre for Political Data (TCPD) / Lok Dhaba, candidate-level election data; women, incumbency and turncoat figures are LokDhaba's own derived aggregates, one row per election for this state
NoteIncumbency and turncoat status require a previous election, so the first year on record carries none. Candidate age is not part of this dataset
