Jind Assembly bypoll win gives BJP leg-up before LS elections

Deccan Chronicle  

Chandigarh: After the results of Jind bypoll in Haryana, a couple of things have emerged, which are significant for the state polity as the Lok Sabha elections are round the corner. The Congress which came a distant third in the bypoll seems to be facing serious infighting, which the party has to contain before the Lok Sabha elections if it wants to pose a challenge to the BJP in the state. Describing the BJP’s comprehensive victory in the by-election to the Jind Assembly constituency as people’s faith in his government’s “transparent and graft-free governance and uniform development policy”, Haryana chief minister Manohar Lal Khattar said the saffron party would win all the 10 seats in the Lok Sabha elections in the state. Senior Congress leader and party’s national spokesperson Randeep Surjewala has criticised that some party leaders are behind his defeat in the Jind bypoll. Senior Congress leader claimed that party leaders didn’t help him in the highly anticipated election Speaking at a meeting in Kaithal, Haryana, Mr Surjewala hinted that this election defeat is somewhat similar to the 1993 bypoll result where he was defeated allegedly due to backstabbing by a former Congress’s chief minister.
