In Maharashtra, it got majority with ally Shiv Sena, though falling short of the score in the 2014 election. Haryana delivered a split verdict, where the BJP was the single largest party....

The voter turnout in Maharashtra and Haryana showed a slump in today's assembly polls as compared to the 2014 elections, indicating that the BJP could hold on to power in both the states.

Over 75,000 police personnel have been mobilised as part of the security arrangements for the October 21 Haryana Assembly election, state police chief Manoj Yadava said today.

Election in Haryana: Manohar Lal Khattar won the seat by 63,000 votes in the 2014 assembly elections and was a surprise BJP choice for the chief minister's post: he is a first-time MLA and became the state's first non-Jat Chief Minister in 18 years.

Election in Haryana: Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar has been an RSS man all his life. He joined the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, the BJP's ideological mentor, in 1977 and moved to the BJP after 17 years.

Maharashtra Polls 2014: The BJP had spent over 60 per cent of the total expenditure by all political parties, on publicity, travel, miscellaneous expenses and lumpsum amount to the candidates in the 2014 Haryana and Maharashtra Assembly polls, according to a report the Association for Democratic Reforms (ADR).

The Congress is facing revolt from two key members in Maharashtra and Haryana - states that are having assembly elections in less than three weeks. In both states, the party was voted out in 2014 and failed to register its presence in the Lok Sabha elections earlier this year. The factionalism, which was one of the causes of the defeat, did not aba...

The assets of Haryana Finance Minister Captain Abhimanyu have more than doubled in the past five years. In his nomination papers for the Haryana assembly elections, the BJP leader disclosed that he had assets worth Rs 170.41 crore against Rs 77.36 crore during the 2014 assembly elections.

Over 10.17 crore voters will decide the fate of several prominent politicians, including Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav, BJP leader Pragya Thakur, Union Minister Harshvardhan and Congress general secretary Jyotiraditya Scindia, as 59 constituencies across six states and the national capital vote in the sixth phase of the Lok Sabha elections t...

Himachal Pradesh BJP leaders today congratulated Manohar Lal Khattar for he being elected as Leader of Haryana BJP Legislature Party (BJPLP) and recalled his long association with the hill state.

Manohar Lal Khattar, a 60-year-old RSS man and first-time legislator, will be Haryana's new chief minister. He was elected at a meeting of the BJP's new MLAs on Tuesday, edging out other contenders like Captain Abhimanyu, a Jat leader.

More than 53,000 voters opted for 'None of the Above (NOTA)' option in EVMs in the Haryana assembly polls, thus rejecting the candidates fielded by political parties in their respective constituencies.

An astounding 83% of Haryana's new legislators - 75 of the 90 - are crorepatis. That includes 40 of the 47 BJP members and 14 of the 15 members from Congress, says a report by NGO Association for Democratic Reforms.

Haryana's new assembly is young. Relatively. And if the BJP picks Captain Abhimanyu from among its three front-runners for chief minister tomorrow, the state will also have a young chief minister.

The Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen or MIM, which made an impressive debut in the Maharashtra elections, will now focus on Karnataka, Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal and other states, said party president Asaduddin Owaisi.
