Explanation:

- Arshad received 35% of the total votes.

- Chamanial got 14 for every 35 votes cast, meaning Chamanial received 2/5 of the votes.

- If Chamanial got 2/5 of the votes, he would have received (2/5) * total votes.

- Jagjit Singh would have received the remaining votes.

- The winner got 4950 more votes than the candidate with the least votes.

- This relationship helps equate the total votes to find the solution.

Let's calculate:

- Let total votes = \( V \).

- Arshad's votes = \( 0.35V \).

- Chamanial's votes = \( \frac{2}{5}V = 0.4V \).

- Jagjit Singh's votes will thus be \( V - (0.35V + 0.4V) = 0.25V \).

- The winner has 4950 more votes than the candidate with the least votes.

- Chamanial's votes exceed Jagjit Singh's votes by \( 0.4V - 0.25V = 0.15V \).

- Set this difference to 4950:

\( 0.15V = 4950 \).

- Solving gives:

\( V = 4950 / 0.15 = 33000 \).
