The electoral winds in Haryana's Nuh district have favored the Congress, sweeping all three assembly seats and marking a significant margin of victory for its candidates. All these victories occurred in a district grappling with historical disadvantages and recent unrest.

The Congress saw Mamman Khan achieve the highest victory margin in the state polls from the Ferozepur Jhirka seat, while Aftab Ahmed maintained his position with a substantial lead in Nuh. The Congress also secured Punahana, with Mohammad Ilyas defeating his independent rival.

This electoral outcome arrives amidst accusations from Congress leader Rahul Gandhi against the BJP for inciting communal discord, as well as a backdrop of violence that included last year's tragic mob attacks. Despite perfecting its strength in Nuh, the Congress was unable to prevent the BJP from retaining significant power across Haryana.
