Uchana Kalan: A major battleground in Haryana elections
Chautala is the great-grandson of former Deputy Prime Minister Devi Lal and grandson of former Haryana Chief Minister Om Prakash Chautala. He was contesting for re-election from this constituency where he is the sitting MLA. He had predicted a hung Assembly in Haryana this time, but said he was confident that the JJP alliance will win enough seats to emerge as a key player after the results.
BJP's candidate and other political parties in the race
In the 2019 Haryana Assembly polls, his party had won 10 of the 90 assembly seats and entered into a post-poll tie-up with BJP, which had fallen short of majority. The current term of the Haryana Assembly ends on November 3, 2024. Other major political parties in the race include the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), JJP-ASP alliance, and BSP-INLD alliance.
