Karnal Assembly Bypoll: CM Nayab Saini Leading

Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini is currently leading by 1,770 votes over his nearest Congress rival, Tarlochan Singh, in the Karnal assembly seat bypolls held last month. Saini, the outgoing MP from Kurukshetra, replaced Manohar Lal Khattar as the chief minister on March 12. Khattar’s resignation as MLA from Karnal necessitated the by-election, with Khattar now contesting the Karnal parliamentary seat on a BJP ticket.

Polling for the Lok Sabha seats and the Karnal assembly constituency took place in the sixth phase of the general elections on May 25. As the counting progresses, both Congress and BJP are showing strong performances in various constituencies, setting the stage for a closely contested outcome in Haryana.
