The Congress on Wednesday released its list of candidates for the upcoming Assembly polls in Haryana. Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda and several of his cabinet colleagues figured in the list of 90 candidates announced on Wednesday night for all the Assembly seats. The state will go to polls on October 15.
While Hooda is being fielded from his pocket borough of Garhi Sampla Kiloi in Rohtak district, Speaker Kuldeep Sharma will contest from Ganaur and Power Minister and AICC spokesperson Randeep Singh Surjewala from Kaithal.
Former Chief Minister Bansi Lal's daughter-in-law Kiran Chaudhary is the party candidate from Tosham while his son Ranbir Singh Mahendra, a former MLA and BCCI chief, has been fielded from Badhra seat in Bhiwani district.
Congress ministers Savitri Jindal has been fielded from Hisar, Captain Ajay Singh Yadav from Rewari, Rao Narendra Singh from Narnaul and Geeta Bhukkal from Jhajjar-SC. The party has nominated senior leader and sitting MLA Bharat Bhushan Batra from Rohtak.
Congress is seeking a third term in Haryana, which is expected to witness a multi-cornered contest with Congress, BJP, Indian National Lok Dal (INLD) and some smaller parties in the fray.
However, the contest will be limited to the three big parties with others largely playing the role of spoilers.
