Haryana Polls 2023: Battle of Dynasties

As Haryana gears up for the October 5 elections, descendants of the state's famous political families, the 'Lals', are set to face off. The 90-member Haryana Assembly will see a fierce contest, including notable battles in Tosham and Dabwali. Results are expected on October 8.

As Haryana gears up for a high-stakes electoral battle on October 5, the state's political landscape is being shaped by the legacies of its famous political families, often referred to as the 'Lals'.

For decades, Haryana's politics has been dominated by the influence of three prominent leaders: Devi Lal, Bhajan Lal, and Bansi Lal. This upcoming election will see their descendants carrying on their political legacies, representing major parties including the Congress, BJP, INLD, and JJP.

Key contests include the battle in Tosham between Bansi Lal's grandsons and the Dabwali seat where Devi Lal's grandchildren face off. With stakes high, the 90-member Haryana Assembly vote on October 5 promises to be a gripping spectacle. Vote counting is scheduled for October 8.
