INLD’s breakaway faction Jannayak Janata Party (JJP), led by Dushyant Chautala, the son of Ajay Chautala, on Wednesday, October 3 released the 4th list of its candidates for the upcoming Assembly polls in Haryana.
Dushyant Chautala, the youngest MP in the previous Lok Sabha, parted ways with the INLD in December 2018 after a bitter split in the party and in the Chautala family.
After the division, at least 10 of INLD’s 19 MLAs in the 90-member assembly switched over to the BJP over the last five years.
Six former INLD legislators who switched to the BJP have been fielded by it for the polls.
They are Parminder Singh Dhull (Julana), Ramchander Kamboj (Rania), Ranvir Gangwa (Nalwa), Zakir Hussain (Nuh), Nagendra Bhadana (Faridabad NIT) and Naseem Ahmad (Ferozpur Jhirka).
The party has entrusted ex BSF jawan Tej Bahadur to contest from Karnal.
