Haryana-based JJP hoping to emerge as 'key' regional player in Rajasthan polls

The Hindu  

The Jannayak Janta Party is confident of putting on a good performance in the Assembly elections in Rajasthan, where the Haryana-based outfit is contesting from 20 seats in its first foray outside its home base. JJP secretary general Digvijay Chautala said the party and other regional outfits hold the key to the Rajasthan Assembly election fortunes, referring to its ‘key’ poll symbol. About the JJP’s chances, he said, “We will put up a good performance.” Pointing to regional parties bagging a few seats in Assembly polls in Rajasthan over the years, Mr. Digvijay Chautala said these outfits “will win 30-35 seats, indicating that no single party will be able to form a government without their support”. Mr. Digvijay Chautala, Haryana Deputy Chief Minister Dushyant Chautala and Mr. Ajay Singh Chautala have been campaigning for JJP candidates fielded from various seats, including Danta Ramgarh and Fatehpur. When asked why a tie-up with the saffron party did not materialise in Rajasthan, Mr. Digvijay Chautala said, “The BJP’s Rajasthan unit was not able to understand the actual strength of the JJP.
