Haryana Election Results 2024 Live: 3 Independent MLAs extend support to BJP, party’s seat tally rises to 51
Haryana Election Result 2024 Live Updates: All three Independent MLAs — Savitri Jindal, Devender Kadyan, and Rajesh Joon — on Wednesday decided to back the BJP government once it is sworn in
Haryana Assembly Election Result Live: A day after the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) retained power for the third time in Haryana Assembly elections, all three Independent MLAs — Savitri Jindal, Devender Kadyan, and Rajesh Joon — on Wednesday decided to back the BJP government once it is sworn in. While Kadyan fought from the Ganaur constituency in Sonipat and defeated his nearest Congress rival Kuldeep Sharma, Joon won from the Bahadurgarh seat in the Jhajjar district, defeating his nearest BJP rival Dinesh Kaushik. On the other hand, Savitri Jindal won as an Independent candidate in Hisar, defeating Congress’s Ram Niwas Rara.
The ruling BJP secured a historic third term in Haryana, winning 48 Assembly seats. The Congress, meanwhile, won 37 seats, Independents stood at 3 and the INLD won 2 seats. However, soon after the results were declared, the Congress party said it cannot accept the verdict in Haryana as there were “serious issues” about the integrity of the counting process and functioning of the EVMs in some districts, and asserted that it would take up the matter with the Election Commission.

Haryana election results 2024 Live: Why the Congress lost in Haryana?
In the recent Haryana Assembly elections, Congress faced significant setbacks, attributed to several key missteps. Firstly, the party's over-reliance on Jat votes, which constitute about 27% of the electorate, proved detrimental. While Congress initially led in some Jat-dominated areas, many crucial seats ultimately swung in favor of the BJP, highlighting a failure to broaden their appeal beyond this demographic.
Additionally, internal conflicts, particularly between Dalit leader Kumari Selja and former CM Bhupinder Singh Hooda, weakened the party's unity. This infighting, coupled with a lack of clear leadership and poor candidate selection strategies, led to disenchantment among supporters. The Congress’s overconfidence following improved Lok Sabha results further contributed to their downfall, as they failed to effectively translate their campaign issues into voter support.
