I was able to find the 2019 data as for following 2009 and 2014 as we can se only 42.33% and 46.39%
as per the ablove date as given

Why bjp has won in the last 2 elections and congress has failed to win because congress and the
media face of Rahul gandi has created a marjor issue but now as we can see in 2023 rahul gandi
image has be coming into a good light and we can seen that bjp is facing a crises afters some big
incidents

And Andheri west has been a hindu majorti sate and thus making it easy for bjp to influence make
the point
