BJP national spokesperson Amit Malviya has launched a scathing attack on the Congress party, accusing it of celebrating electoral success in Haryana only due to support from Muslim-dominated constituencies. He labeled Congress as the 'new Muslim League'.

Malviya highlighted constituencies like Nuh and Hathin where Congress candidates, primarily from Muslim backgrounds, won by large margins, while drawing parallels with Jammu and Kashmir where no Hindu candidates won on Congress tickets.

Simultaneously, Congress Leader Rahul Gandhi described Haryana's results as 'unexpected' and vowed to address complaints with the Election Commission, while praising Jammu and Kashmir's results as a democratic victory.
