"I will collect the certificate and then offer prayers to Lord Krishna at Jyotisar temple. The 2.80 crore people of Haryana have chosen this government, and we will continue to move forward under the leadership of PM Modi," Saini added.
As the BJP approaches the majority mark and heads towards a third consecutive win in the Haryana assembly, Union Minister Manohar Lal Khattar attributed the party's success to the public and BJP workers, emphasising that the work done by the BJP for Haryana's wrestlers, farmers, and youth could not have been achieved by the Congress.
"The issue at hand was the work we have done for Haryana's wrestlers, farmers, and youth, which Congress could never accomplish. I want to say that the credit for this victory goes to our party workers and the people of the state. The public has endorsed our victory, and the credit goes to them and the workers of the party," Khattar said.
According to the latest update from the Election Commission website, BJP candidates have won 29 seats and are leading in 20 of the total 90 Assembly seats in Haryana. The Congress has won 28 seats and is leading in 8. Two independent candidates have also won their respective seats.
