 "As Haryana’s assembly elections approach on October 5, Congress unveils candidates amidst turbulent alliance talks with AAP.")
Haryana’s Assembly elections are set for October 5, with vote counting on October 8. The Congress party has announced its third list of 40 candidates, bringing the total to 81 for the 90-member assembly. Notable candidates include former chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda, party MP Randeep Surjewala’s son Aditya Surjewala, and wrestler Vinesh Phogat. Despite ongoing seat-sharing discussions with the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), progress has stalled, leading to a range of candidates being announced by both parties. The Congress is also renominating all its sitting MLAs as it prepares for the elections. The last day for filing nominations is Thursday.
In a significant move ahead of the Haryana Assembly elections, the Congress party has announced its third list of candidates, featuring 40 names, including party MP Randeep Surjewala’s son, Aditya Surjewala, who will contest from Kaithal. With this announcement, the Congress has officially declared a total of 81 candidates out of the 90-member assembly. Notably, they have yet to finalize candidates for nine seats, amidst ongoing discussions regarding a potential alliance with the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and other smaller parties.
The political scene is heating up as the deadline for filing nominations approaches, set for Thursday. This batch of candidates includes prominent figures such as former Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda, who will be contesting from Garhi Sampla-Kiloi, and the state unit chief Udai Bhan from Hodal. Additionally, celebrated wrestler Vinesh Phogat is running from Julana.
The potential alliance talks between Congress and AAP have faced hurdles, leading to some internal debate within Congress about joining forces with Arvind Kejriwal’s party. Meanwhile, the elections are scheduled for October 5, with vote counting set for October 8.
This year’s elections are crucial for both parties as they seek to secure their positions in Haryana’s political landscape.
