In the 2019 Sikkim Legislative Assembly election, Kunga Nima Lepcha of SKM won in both Shyari and Gangtok constituencies, so he relinquished Gangtok seat.

In the by-election, ruling SKM didn't send their candidate to Gangtok, and supported opposition BJP. Former ruling SDF participated in the Sikkim Legislative Assembly election as the opposition for the first time in 25 years. Opposition SNPPSNPP was established on 10 October, 2008, but its registration had not been passed by ECI till 25 September, 2019. and SRP sent their candidates to Gangtok for the first time. Opposition INC boycotted this by-election.

As the result, Yong Tshering Lepcha of BJP defeated his nearest rival Delay Namgyal Barfungpa of SNPP. Rinzing Ongmu Bhutia of SDF fell to the 3rd position.
