Haryana Assembly Elections 2024: Overview Of The 90 Assembly Constituencies

Haryana Assembly elections, involving 90 seats, are scheduled for October 5, with vote counting set for October 8 in both Jammu and Kashmir and Haryana. The current Haryana Legislative Assembly will complete its tenure on November 3, 2024. The last election, held in October 2019, led to a coalition government between the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Jannayak Janata Party (JJP), with Manohar Lal Khattar as chief minister.

In 2019, the BJP secured 40 seats, forming a coalition with JJP, which won 10 seats, while Congress took 31 seats. The BJP and JJP have since ended their alliance, and this year, the BJP, Congress, JJP, and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) will compete.

In the recent Lok Sabha elections, the BJP lost five of the state’s parliamentary seats, while the Congress regained five seats after being shut out five years ago. Extrapolating these results to the Assembly segments, the BJP led in 44 out of 90 Assembly seats, Congress in 42, and AAP in four. Neither JJP nor Indian National Lok Dal (INLD) led in any segments.

Haryana Assembly Elections: Incumbent BJP Vs Resurgent Congress

For the BJP, the current situation differs from five years ago. Although the party won all 10 Lok Sabha seats five years ago, it fell short of a majority in the Assembly elections, securing only 40 seats, down from 47 in 2014. As a result, the party had to form a coalition with JJP. Several ministers, including Ram Bilas Sharma, Captain Abhimanyu, and others, lost their seats, leaving only Khattar and Anil Vij to retain theirs.

Five years later, the BJP has ended its alliance with JJP and replaced Khattar with Nayab Singh Saini as chief minister to refresh its image and counter anti-incumbency. Since its Lok Sabha setback, the ruling party has introduced several welfare schemes to regain voter support. Meanwhile, the Congress, revitalized by its parliamentary election gains, is optimistic about ending the BJP’s rule, although internal unity remains a challenge.

AA declared to contest all 90 seats. Smaller parties like INLD, led by Abhay Chautala, and the Gopal Kanda-led Haryana Lokhit Party, which supports BJP, are also in the fray. INLD has allied with the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP).

Haryana has 20.1 million eligible voters, including 10.6 million men, 9.5 million women, 452,000 first-time voters, and 4.09 million young voters.
