"Atmosphere of change, Congress will win": Ashok Tanwar exudes confidence on winning 75 seats in Haryana

Sirsa: Congress leader Ashok Tanwar on Saturday exuded confidence in winning a minimum of 75 seats out of 90 seats in the Haryana Assembly polls.
After casting his vote, Congress leader Ashok Tanwar says, "Congress will get a minimum of 75 seats. There is an atmosphere of change and Congress will definitely get great success... Congress party stands with all sections and this mandate is against".
Haryana BJP leader Ashok Tanwar on Friday joined Congress in the presence of Congress' senior observer for Haryana assembly elections, Ajay Maken.
"The wind is in BJP's favour", Tanwar was the Congress MP from Sirsa after he won in the 2009 general elections. Nayab Singh Saini expresses confidence in BJP's victory in Haryana.
The 48-year-old was appointed as Haryana Congress Chief from 2014 to 2019, when he left the party. In 2021, he joined the Trinamool Congress and switched to the Aam Aadmi Party in 2022. He joined the BJP ahead of the 2024 general elections and contested from Sirsa but lost to Congress' Kumari Selja from the seat.
Speaking to a reporter on Friday, he criticised the BJP, accusing the party of using religion and caste in politics.
"In the last few days, Congress organised Bharat Jodo Yatra and other such events under the leadership of Rahul Gandhi and Mallikarjun Kharge. Bharat Jodo Yatra gave a direction to the country and people developed faith in the Congress party... Rahul Gandhi emerged as a strong opponent... BJP makes use of religion and caste in politics wherever applicable," Tanwar said.
Voting in Haryana started at 7 AM in the morning and will go till 6 pm. A total of 1,031 candidates are contesting in all 90 assembly constituencies, and 20,632 polling booths have been set up for voting. The results for the Haryana Assembly elections will be declared along with those of Jammu and Kashmir on October 8.
