“Three to four rounds of counting are still yet to be done”: Congress leader Pargat Singh
New Delhi [India], October 8 (ANI): On the Haryana and Jammu Kashmir election result trends, Congress leader Pargat Singh on Tuesday said that in Haryana, there were 15 seats where the margin was lesser than 1,000 and there were still three to four rounds remaining to be counted.
Speaking to ANI, Singh said “In Haryana, there are 15 seats such that the margin is lesser than 1,000 and now three to four rounds are remaining to be counted. We still cannot predict what will happen. I still have confidence that Congress will form the government in Haryana and when it comes to Jammu and Kashmir, the Congress must do better. The people there in Jammu Kashmir are completely opposite to what BJP portrayed.”
Meanwhile, Madhya Pradesh CM Mohan Yadav expressed his happiness over BJP leading with majority seats in the Haryana Poll and said that the saffron party would form the government for the third consecutive time.
CM Yadav also extended greetings to all the BJP leaders, officials and office-bearers of Haryana for the trends towards the victory.
“We had hoped because of the work done by the BJP government in the last 10 years and the impact of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s working style, the BJP is going to form a government for the third time in Haryana. I congratulate all the BJP leaders, office-bearers, Chief Minister Nayab Saini and all the public representatives of Haryana who are heading towards victory,” CM Yadav told ANI.
He further took a jibe at the Congress party and Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi saying that the election was not of the grand old party but about the LoP’s failure.”I myself had visited Haryana and I had said earlier that actually this election was not of the Congress but Rahul Gandhi’s failure. The public knows very well the way Rahul Gandhi carries out his working style. The BJP has taken forward the agenda of development. One should not speak lightly about anyone and move forward with one’s work, former CM of Haryana Manohar Lal Khattar had followed this line and CM Saini also followed the same line. Under the leadership of Modi, we all have followed this. We all talk about development. The public also likes the talks about development and that is why today the BJP’s lotus is going to bloom again in Haryana,” he added.
As per the latest ECI trends of 1.50 PM, BJP is leading on 47 seats while the Congress led on 38 seats. The Indian National Lok Dal (INLD) and Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) were seen to be leading with one seat each while Independents and smaller parties were leading in three seats.
