Haryana's political showdown revealed
Here are five key reasons why the BJP's win is significant:
First party to achieve a hat-trick in Haryana
The saffron party became the first to achieve a hattrick of wins in Haryana. The achievement not only highlights the party's dominance in the state's politics but also sets a precedent for future elections. BJP has shown once again that it can maintain power over terms and battle anti-incumbency.
A key pre-election move was to appoint Nayab Singh Saini as chief minister, who replaced Manohar Lal Khattar just months before the elections. Saini's leadership has been popular among people, especially among non-Jat communities, which constitute a substantial portion of Haryana's electorate. The BJP attracted new voters while maintaining its loyal vote base with a focus on OBC and upper-caste representation.
Increase in vote share & seat share
There was a sense of an anti-incumbency sentiment among voters, but the BJP managed to improve its vote share and seat share.
