project on Haryana lok sabha seats. Only 5 pages
Answers
Explanation:
Haryana has 10 parliamentary constituencies and 90 Assembly constituencies. Like Himachal Pradesh, the state is currently a mainstay of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). The saffron party currently holds seven out of 10 constituencies.
In the last decade, the state has switched loyalties from Congress to BJP. In 2004 and 2009 General Elections, the Congress had won all but one seats. However, the tides turned for BJP in 2014, when riding on the Modi-wave, the BJP was able to win seven seats. Congress has only one constituency to its credit.
Deepender Singh Hooda, Congress leader and son of former chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda, succeeded in wooing the Jat votes and won the only seat for the grand old party in 2014.
