Haryana Assembly Elections

The BJP has called a two-day organisational meeting that begins on Thursday and comes ahead of assembly elections in three states -- Haryana, Jharkhand and Maharashtra.

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Thursday said it will contest all 90 assembly seats in Haryana, where people want "badlav" (change) and are looking at it with great hope.

Home Minister Amit Shah lashed out at the Congress Tuesday, accusing the party of having "snatched reservation from backward classes in Karnataka and giving it to Muslims".

Haryana's Indian National Lok Dal (INLD) and the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) on Thursday stitched a pre-poll alliance for the state Assembly elections likely to be held in October.

There is no scope for an alliance between the Congress and the AAP for assembly polls in Haryana and Delhi but the INDIA bloc will fight elections together in Maharashtra and Jharkhand, AICC general secretary Jairam Ramesh said on Thursday.

The BJP's tally in Haryana has been halved in this year's Lok Sabha elections but the party has reposed its faith in Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini and declared that the Assembly elections later this year will be fought under his leadership.

Jannayak Janta Party leader Dushyant Chautala on Thursday said his party is ready to support the Congress in the Rajya Sabha election and ruled out any alliance with the ruling BJP in Haryana before or after the next Assembly polls.

Kiran Choudhary, a four-time Congress MLA from the Tosham Assembly constituency, and her daughter Shruti, the ex-Bhiwani-Mahendragarh MP, joined the BJP this afternoon.

The Congress made significant gains in Haryana wresting five Lok Sabha seats and giving a setback to ruling BJP, whose tally was down from 10 to five in the state, where the assembly polls are also due later this year.

Fifty eight seats across seven states and one Union Territory voted in the sixth and penultimate phase of the Lok Sabha election today. Delhi and Haryana are voting in a single phase. For the 7th and last phase, 57 seats will be left.

Polling in the 10 Lok Sabha constituencies in Haryana and for the Karnal assembly by-poll will be held on Saturday that will decide the fate of 223 candidates, including big guns like former chief minister Manohar Lal Khattar.
