YAMUNANAGAR: Indian National Lok Dal ( INLD ) leader Abhay Singh Chautala on Saturday launched an attack on the Congress , calling it the “B-Team of the BJP ,” and claimed that the 2019 Haryana Assembly elections had already exposed this reality.
Speaking at the residence of INLD’s national spokesperson Ashwini Dutta in Yamunanagar, Abhay Chautala alleged that Congress leader and former chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda had succumbed to pressure from the BJP and the Enforcement Directorate (ED). “Despite knowing from survey reports that nearly 30 of his sitting MLAs were bound to lose, Hooda still gave them tickets. This helped the BJP form its government in Haryana,” Chautala said.
Chautala also dismissed allegations of large-scale rigging in Haryana elections , questioning, “If there was vote theft, then how did Bhupinder Singh Hooda himself manage to win?” He added that while instances of bogus voting in states like Bihar and Uttar Pradesh in the past were well-known, it was the responsibility of the Election Commission to conduct inquiries and take action against those found guilty.
Turning his focus to the INLD’s upcoming show of strength, Chautala announced that a massive rally will be organized in Rohtak on September 25 to mark the birth anniversary of former deputy Prime Minister Chaudhary Devi Lal. “This rally will break all previous records. Our workers are highly enthusiastic, and I am personally visiting all 90 constituencies to invite them to join,” he said.
On the occasion, INLD state president Rampal Majra was also present. Former IB officer and Saanjha Radio chairman Manmohan Singh gifted Chautala a copy of his newly authored book.
