Commenting on the exit poll results, Congress leader and former Haryana chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda said the people of Haryana have decided to bring the grand old party to power.

“People have made their minds to bring the Congress to power. The BJP has not done anything for Haryana. There was no law and order in Harayana under the BJP. Sometimes, exit polls are right and sometimes they are wrong… Congress is going to form the government,” Hooda told News18.

Asked if he expects to become the Haryana Chief Minister if the exit polls are proven right on counting day, Hooda told news agency ANI: “MLAs will be elected and whatever decision the high command takes will be acceptable to all… She (Kumari Selja) is our senior leader. Why doesn’t she have the right (to become the Chief Minister).”

Wrestler Vinesh Phogat, who joined the Congress close to the polls, said: “This is a moment of happiness for the people of Haryana. This is the result of the atrocities people had to face in the last 10 years. I would like to congratulate the Congress for this brilliant performance.”

Meanwhile, BJP leader and sitting chief minister Nayab Singh Saini said BJP will return to power irrespective of what the exit polls predict.

“We will win with huge numners. We have worked for every sector… On October 8, the BJP will win with a huge mandate,” he said.

Haryana – where soldiers, wrestlers, and farmers dominate the electorate – is the first state to go to the polls after Lok Sabha elections where both the Congress and the BJP won five seats each in the state.

With more than 2 crore people eligible to vote, the Haryana polls decide the fate of Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini, Congress leaders Bhupinder Singh Hooda and Vinesh Phogat, besides the JJP’s Dushyant Chautala and 1,027 other candidates.

The ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is eyeing a hat-trick of Assembly election wins in the state, while the Congress is hoping to return to power after 10 years. The counting of votes for Haryana Assembly elections will be taken up on October 8, along with the counting for J&K polls.

A total of 1,031 candidates contested the Haryana election, including 101 women and 464 Independent nominees.

Besides the BJP and the Congress, the key contesting parties are the Aam Aadmi PArty (AAP) and the INLD-BSP and JJP-Azad Samaj Party alliances.

What Happened in 2019 Haryana Elections?

In the 2019 Haryana Assembly polls, the BJP had won 40 of the 90 seats, the Congress 31 and the Jannayak Janta Party (JJP) 10. The BJP had formed the government with the support of the JJP while most of the Independent MLAs had also extended support to the saffron party. However, the JJP’s post-poll tie-up with the BJP ended after the latter replaced Manohar Lal Khattar with Saini as the chief minister in March.

This time, the Congress left the Bhiwani seat for its INDIA bloc partner CPI(M), while the BJP did not contest the Sirsa seat, from where Haryana Lokhit Party chief Gopal Kanda sought re-election.

Most seats witnessed a direct fight between the BJP and the Congress.

Who are the Key Candidates in Haryana Polls?

Prominent candidates in the fray in Haryana elections are: Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini (BJP, Ladwa); Leader of Opposition BS Hooda (Congress, Garhi Sampla-Kiloi); Abhay Singh Chautala (INLD, Ellenabad); Dushyant Chautala (JJP, Uchana Kalan); Anil Vij (BJP, Ambala Cantonment); ‘Captain’ Abhimanyu (BJP, Narnaund); OP Dhankar (BJP, Badli); Anurag Dhanda (AAP, Kalayat); and Vinesh Phogat, (Congress, Julana).

From Tosham, former MP Shruti Choudhry of the BJP and Anirudh Chaudhary, both cousins, are contesting. From Dabwali, Devi Lal’s grandson Aditya Devi Lal, an INLD candidate, is taking on the JJP’s Digvijay Singh Chautala, the great grandson of the former deputy prime minister.

The BJP has fielded former chief minister late Bhajan Lal’s grandson Bhavya Bishnoi from Adampur in Hisar while its nominee from Ateli in Mahendragarh is Arti Rao, whose father Rao Inderjit Singh is a Union minister.

Among the Independent candidates are Savitri Jindal (Hisar), Ranjit Chautala (Rania) and Chitra Sarwara (Ambala Cantonment). Taking on Dushyant Chautala from Uchana is the Congress’s Brijendra Singh, son of former Union minister Birender Singh. A few rebels from both the Congress and the BJP are also in the fray.

What are the Key Election Issues in Haryana?

For the Congress, national issues like inflation, the Agnipath military recruitment scheme and the state’s growing unemployment, law and order and resentment among employees, who are unhappy with the existing National Pension System are among the major poll planks.

In its Haryana election manifesto, the Congress promised to revert to the old pension scheme and Rs 2,000 monthly payment to women, besides promising to raise the monthly social security pension of old-age people, handicapped and widows to Rs 6,000, providing cooking gas cylinders at Rs 500 each and giving 300 units of free electricity every month to every household.

Meanwhile, despite the repealing of the controversial farm laws by the BJP-led central government in 2022, farmers in Haryana and neighbouring Punjab are still protesting.

In rural Haryana, where wrestling is a way of life, there is unhappiness over the “injustice” meted out to women athletes who had accused former Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) chief and BJP MP Brij Bhushan of sexual harassment.

The ruling BJP, meanwhile, had extensively promoted its “non-stop Haryana” vision and has highlighted the advantages of a double-engine government, while targeting the Congress for anti-reservation sentiments and dynastic politics. The BJP has made 20 promises, and interestingly, five of these overlap with those in the Congress’s ‘7 Guarantees’.
