Bhupinder Singh Hooda files nomination papers for Haryana polls, hits out at BJP govt

India Today  

Senior Congress leader Bhupinder Singh Hooda on Friday said the "anti-people" BJP government in Haryana will be ousted after the October 21 polls as people have made up their mind to bring back the main opposition party to power. The Haryana Congress Legislature Party leader said the "false promises" made by the Bharatiya Janata Party have been exposed before the people. "They talk of 'ab ki baar 75 paar, but people are saying 'ab ki baar Congress ki sarkar'," the veteran Congress leader told reporters after filing nomination papers from his Garhi Sampla-Kiloi constituency. Bhupinder Hooda's loyalists had put pressure on the Congress high command to change the party's state unit chief Ashok Tanwar, following which it named Kumari Selja Haryana unit president and Hooda was appointed Congress Legislative Party leader.
