Arithmetic · working shown

The top two polled 96.7% of votes; the other 21 candidates 2.4% between them.
(5,25,911 + 4,78,459) ÷ 10,38,423 = 96.7% · 25,414 ÷ 10,38,423 = 2.4%
Turnout of 53.5% was 6.1 pp below the state's median seat (59.6%).
53.5 − 59.6 = −6.1
The margin narrowed from 20.7 pp in 1996 to 4.6 pp.
4.6 − 20.7 = −16.1 pp
Pramod Mahajan, the 1996 winner, finished second in 1998.
