Rohtak | Kosli: Rohtak was always perceived to be the pocket borough of the Hoodas till Deepender Hooda lost the 2019 elections by a narrow margin. This time, it is a battle of prestige for the family — everyone from Deepender's wife to his mother are all on the field to ensure his victory.

Deepender's father and former Chief Minister of Haryana Bhupender Hooda had defeated Jat stalwart and former Deputy Prime Minister Devi Lal thrice from Rohtak.
But in the Modi wave of the 2019 Lok Sabha election across Hindi heartland, Congress candidate Hooda lost from Rohtak narrowly, primarily due to one assembly segment, Kosli, as BJP's Anand Sharma got more than 70,000 votes over Deepender from here.
This time also, the contest is between Sharma and Deepender. And the latter wants to keep the contest local and is harping on development work.
