New Delhi [India], August 28 (ANI): Jannayak Janta Party (JJP) and Chandra Shekhar Azad’s Azad Samaj Party (Kanshi Ram) on Tuesday allied for the upcoming Haryana Assembly polls.
The alliance will contest on all 90 Assembly constituencies in Haryana with JJP competing on 70 seats while ASP on 20. Haryana will go to polls on October 1 in a single phase.
“Out of 90 seats, JJP to contest on 70 seats and Azad Samaj party on 20 seats,” said JJP leader Dushyant Chautala.
Meanwhile, Chandra Shekhar Azad said that the issues for the Assembly elections are employment for the youth, relief to the poor from inflation, social justice and ending privatisation, reservation in promotions, and MSP.
“The issues are clear, employment for the youth, relief to the poor from inflation, social justice and ending privatisation, reservation in promotions, MSP, better law and order… We hope our alliance will win all 90 seats,” Azad said.
Reacting over the alliance of the Jannayak Janta Party and Azad Samaj Party (Kanshi Ram), Congress MP Deepender Hooda said that INLD and JJP are on the direction of BJP.
“INLD and JJP work on the directions of BJP,” Hooda said.
The Haryana Assembly, consisting of 90 members, is scheduled for elections on October 1, with the results expected to be announced on October 4.
After the last assembly polls in Haryana, the BJP formed the government with the support of the 10 JJP MLAS.
In the 2024 Lok Sabha Elections, JJP got only 0.87 per cent of the vote share, with none of its candidates winning any seat in the state.
In the 2019 elections, the BJP, with 40 seats in the 90-member assembly, formed a coalition government with the JJP, which had won 10 seats, while the Congress secured 31 seats. Earlier this year, the BJP-JJP alliance was dissolved.
In 2024, Haryana is likely to witness a four-way contest between the BJP, Congress, Jannayak Janta Party (JJP), and AAP. (ANI)
