Alliance government partners in Haryana may contest 2024 polls independently

Alliance between BJP and JJP to form government in Haryana state was finalized after 2019 Vidhan Sabha polls when none of the political party in the state was able to have majority to form government independently and newly launched political party JJP (Janhit Janta Party) by Dushyant Chautala grandson of former Haryana chief minister Om Parkash Chautala became kingmaker getting 10 seats in Haryana Vidhan Sabha during its first attempt to form government in the state in alliance with BJP.

The present political scenario in Haryana reveals that alliance partners may contest 2024 coming Lok Sabha as well as Vidhan Sabha polls independently since both political parties has now started preparations for coming elections. However, during a recent two days party meeting organised by JJP at Gurugram many of the senior party leaders expressed desire to contest 2024 Lok Sabha as well as Vidhan Sabha polls independently. Similarly, BJP leaders too during a recent party meeting at Panchkula had given indication to contest coming 2024 polls independently. Even, during last civic polls held in Haryana state BJP had declared to contest these polls in the state alone, however the decision was changed to contest these polls jointly when Congress left poll battle.

According to political experts in Haryana state, a rift has developed between the relationship of alliance partners after the incident when senior JJP leaders desired to strengthen party network in the state enabling to be in a position to contest 2024 Vidhan Sabha as well as Lok Sabha polls independently. Looking at the present situation, there is no guarantee that both alliance partners will contest next polls jointly or independently against each other because during recent party meeting held at Gurugram in which both JJP National President Ajay Singh Chautala and Deputy Prime Minister Dushyant Chautaala were present took feed back from JJP senior leaders for over six hours when most of them expressing themselves neglected were of view that party should contest next Lok Sabha and Vidhan Sabha polls alone.

According to information, the situation at present is not similar to that after 2019 Vidhan Sabha polls when Dushyant Chautala after separated from INLD launched his independent party and was able to win 10 Vidhsan Sabha seats in first attempt and became a kingmaker to form government in Haryana state. But the situation is not similar at present since out of 10 JJP MLAs in Haryana Vidhan Sabha five MLAs are unhappy with the party and a few of them are under the influence of BJP.

Past scenario reveals, during 2019 polls JJP had contested Lok Sabha polls in alliance with Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) from Yamunanagar, Sonipat, Kurukshetra, Sirsa, Bhiwani, Mohindergrah, Hisar, Rohtak and Gurugram whereas AAP contested fromAmbala, Karnal and Rohtak but results were not satisfactory since both parties failed to get even a single seat. However, in 2019 Vidhan Sabha polls  JJP was able to win 10 seats which included Uchana Lok Sabha seat won by Dushyant Chautala himself and Badhsa Lok Sabha seat won by his mother Naina Chautala in its first attempt after separating from INLD and launched new JJP party and became kingmaker having alliance with BJP to form government in the state.
