Ladwa election result: Nayab Singh Saini is the BJP candidate from the Ladwa constituency in Kurukshetra.
Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini won the Ladwa Assembly constituency as the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) went on to win the state even as the exit polls had predicted a Congress victory. Saini, the BJP candidate from the Ladwa constituency in Kurukshetra, won the seat by 16,054 votes while Mewa Singh of the Congress lost.
Saini joined in the singing of bhajans at Shri Dakshin Mukhi Hanuman Temple located in Brahma Sarovar ahead of the counting of votes on Tuesday.
“Today is the day of counting and I am confident that as a result of the works done by the BJP government in the past ten years, we will be forming the government in Haryana for the third time…Our government will continue to serve the people of Haryana. Congress works for power, BJP works for service,” Saini said while speaking to reporters.
Saini is the Chief Minister of Haryana and BJP MLA from Karnal. He won the Assembly bypoll from the Karnal seat after former CM Manohar Lal Khattar resigned to take over his role at the Centre.
Saini was BJP’s Lok Sabha MP from Kurukshetra from 2019 to 2024. He resigned as an MP after becoming the Chief Minister of Haryana earlier in 2024. According to his affidavit, Saini has movable assets worth Rs 68 lakh and immovable assets worth Rs 4.15 crore. He has no pending criminal cases against him. Saini has passed LLB from Ch Charan Singh University, Meerut.
