Congress Urges Haryana Governor to Dissolve Assembly

The Haryana Congress delegation, led by Bhupinder Singh Hooda, met Governor Bandaru Dattatreya, claiming the BJP government, led by Nayab Singh Saini, is in the minority. They demanded the dissolution of the Assembly and fresh elections, arguing that the current government lacks a majority and may resort to unconstitutional methods.

A delegation of Haryana Congress leaders, spearheaded by Leader of Opposition Bhupinder Singh Hooda, met with Governor Bandaru Dattatreya on Thursday, pressing for the dissolution of the Assembly. Hooda affirmed that the Nayab Singh Saini-led BJP government lacks majority support, and as such, advocated for immediate elections.

Addressing the media, Hooda argued, ''The government lacks the moral right to stay in power and should be dissolved. New elections are essential.'' Holding the same stance in their memorandum, the Congress insisted that the government cannot survive without resorting to unconstitutional practices.

Hooda detailed the assembly numbers: the BJP's 41 seats need support from independents, falling short of the required majority of 44. Emphasizing the need to safeguard democracy and prevent horse-trading, the Congress called for gubernatorial intervention and the imposition of President's rule in Haryana.
