"Corrupt, arrogant BJP should be ousted from Haryana": AAP Haryana chief Sushil Gupta

New Delhi: With Aam Aadmi Party failing to make a mark in the Haryana assembly election and none of its candidates leading in the 90 seats, AAP Haryana president Sushil Gupta remarked saying that no matter whoever forms the government in the state the "corrupt and arrogant" BJP should be removed from power.
"We want the BJP to be ousted from the state. Whoever forms the government, this corrupt and arrogant BJP should be ousted from power there," Sushil Gupta said.
Speaking on talks of AAP-Congress alliance not going through, AAP Haryana president Sushil Gupta said, "It is not my job to do this assessment. High Command of both parties will assess what gain or loss it resulted in and what should have been done or not done. We made a positive effort at that time. We forged an alliance at the national level and we brought BJP to crutches. Had this been done here as well, results would have been vastly different."
Meanwhile, as the BJP edges towards a hat-trick in Haryana assembly, the Congress raised concerns about discrepancies in the vote count data shown by the Election Commission.
"There is a mismatch in the actual number of rounds counted and the number of rounds being shown on the television through the Election Commission data. The EC data is lagging behind; they are still showing 4th or the 5th found data while 11 rounds have been counted. Our General Secretary Communications has tweeted to the Election Commission asking - are trying to put pressure on the local administration by delaying the display and uploading of data. In J&K you are getting live data with every round counted but in Haryana, it is not so." Congress' Pawan Khera said.
Senior Congress leader Jairam Ramesh also accused the EC of trying to influence the results.
"Like the Lok Sabha elections, in Haryana we are again witnessing slowing down of uploading up-to- date trends on the ECI website. Is the BJP trying to build pressure on administration by sharing outdated and misleading trends?" he said.
The Congress' turn around comes after they began celebrations in the morning when early trends showed the party in the lead. Pawan Khera had even expressed optimism, declaring it a moment of celebration, and confidently asserted that Congress will secure a full majority to form the government in both Haryana and Jammu Kashmir.
On early trends in morning, he said "This is just initial counting numbers, wait and watch. We are confident that we will get to eat laddus and jalebis all day today, we are going to send jalebis to Prime Minister Modi as well. We are confident that we are going to form the government with a majority in Jammu-Kashmir and Haryana."
As per the latest ECI trends of 12:40 PM, BJP is leading on 49 seats while the Congress led on 35 seats. The Indian National Lok Dal (INLD) and Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) were seen to be leading with one seat each while Independents and smaller parties were leading in four seats.
According to the latest update from the Election Commission, Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini led from the Ladwa constituency.
As of 12:40 noon, Saini was leading with 40,585 votes over Congress' Mewa Singh.
Bhupinder Singh Hooda was seen leading from the Garhi Sampla-Kiloi seat with 71,753 votes over his nearest rival from BJP Manju.
Though exit polls had predicted Congress's victory in the election, if the trend continues, the BJP is poised for a hatrick win in the Assembly election of the state.
