The leads of the Lok Sabha polls seem to be spelling doom for former Deputy Chief Minister Dushyant Chautala’s Jannayak Janata Party (JJP), which looks set to forfeit deposits in all 10 seats.
About a decade ago in 2014, Rahul Yadav Fazilpuria, who hails from Fazilpuria Jharsa, a small village located on the Haryana-Rajasthan border, rose to fame with his rap song Ladki Kar Gayi Chull. Two years later, the same song was filmed for the movie Kapoor and Sons, starring Sidharth Malhotra and Alia Bhatt.
“He will teach the BJP a lesson.” That is how a group of youngsters in Karnal reacted when Dushyant Chautala’s newly minted Jannayak Janata Party (JJP) won 10 seats in their first poll outing in the October 2019 Assembly elections. Less than five years on, it is the BJP that appears to have done so.
As the BJP snapped ties with the Jannayak Janata Party (JJP) earlier this week and changed government in Haryana in a sudden move, the party counted on the support of five MLAs of its erstwhile alliance partner.
On March 10, IAS-turned-politician Brijendra Singh (51), the sitting Lok Sabha MP from Haryana’s Hisar, left the BJP to join the Congress. The son of senior politician Chaudhary Birender Singh, who also resigned from his Lok Sabha membership, spoke toThe Indian Express about recent political changes in Haryana and the possible outcome in the upcoming elections. Excerpts:
A day after the BJP severed ties with it and replaced Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar with Nayab Singh Saini, the Jannayak Janta Party (JJP) issued a whip to its MLAs directing them to remain “absent” from the trust voting session underway in the Haryana Vidhan Sabha on Wednesday when Saini will prove his majority in the House.
Following failed seat-sharing talks between the BJP and the Dushyant Chautala-led Jannayak Janta Party (JJP) for Haryana’s 10 Lok Sabha constituencies, the BJP dissolved their alliance on Tuesday, and subsequently formed a new government with support from Independents and Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini at the helm.
West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee will lead a roadshow in Siliguri on Wednesday to protest against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and a proposed National Register of Citizens. This comes a day after Mamata called the Act “unconstitutional and discriminatory” and told people of the state not to apply for citizenship as they would be “marked as refugees and infiltrators … deprived of government schemes”.
