Chandigarh: Former Chief Minister Bhajan Lal's son Kuldeep Bishnoi's floated Haryana Janhit Congress (HJC BL) along with a handful of independent candidates emerged as key players who likely to play significant role in the formation of next Government in Haryana where Left parties
and BSP failed to mark their existence on the political map of the state.
After parting ways with Congress, young leader and former MP Kuldeep Bishnoi's HJC-BL was unsuccessful in its attempts to forge a pre-poll alliance with the BSP and later with BJP.
Both the BSP and BJP decided to severe ties with the HJC-BL after failing to reach at a consensus on seat sharing with the Kuldeep Bishnoi's outfit.
Of the total 90 Assembly constituencies Bishnoi fielded 87 candidates out of which six romped home victorious after results were declared on Thursday.
Bishnoi himself won from Adampur seat whereas his mother Jasma Devi was unlucky as she lost to Congress nominee Sampat Singh from Nalwa constituency.
Looking at the political equations after the final results where Congress could muster only 40 seats, Indian National Lok Dal (INLD) surprised everyone by getting 31 seats and BJP four, the key to formation of Government other than
the Congress is in the hands of HJC BL.
"I have been receiving feelers for an alliance from both INLD supremo Om Parkash Chautala and Bhupinder Singh Hooda(Chief Minister) and those against him," Kuldeep told PTI over phone adding that "his party and independents will play a key role in the formation of the next government in state."
"I have called a meeting of my party MLAs on Friday at Delhi to decide on future course of action," he said adding that he was "open" to give support to any political outfit.
