  • no confidence motion in haryana: BJP’s Haryana govt confident of support from some JJP MLAs

    BJP is confident of securing its government in Haryana, even as JJP and Congress has sought the governor’s intervention for a floor test of the Nayab Saini-led government. BJP is confident of support from several JJP MLAs.

    Former BJP ally, Dushyant Chautala, has written to the governor demanding a floor test in the state assembly. In his letter, Chautala said that the recent resignations and withdrawals of support have left the ruling BJP alliance teetering on the brink of a minority status. Till a few months ago, he was deputy chief minister in the BJP-JJP alliance government in Haryana.

    Similarly, Congress leader Bhupender Hooda also said he has sought time from the governor and would demand that an assembly session be called so that the Saini government would prove its majority on the floor of the House.Political temperature has risen in Haryana after three independent MLAs withdrew their support from the BJP government there.

Responding to the questions of BJP government lacking majority, Saini said “whenever the session will be called, we will win the trust vote”.”Where was Dushyant Chautala when the special session of the assembly was called? And BJP govt won majority. Earlier, he was enjoying power. Now he is out of it, so he is doing all this.
