Haryana CM rides bullock cart

Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini has embarked on an election campaign for the upcoming assembly polls, notably riding a bullock cart to connect with voters in the Jind district. This unique approach, which included discussions with local women about government policies, was aimed at emphasizing his humble roots and understanding grassroots issues. Saini proclaimed on social media, 'The son of a poor farmer knows how to run the government as well as drive a bullock cart', signaling his commitment to the common people. His campaign occurs against the backdrop of ongoing political tensions, particularly following controversial remarks by BJP MP Kangana Ranaut, which have drawn criticism from the opposition Congress party. With elections set for October 1, the BJP is facing challenges related to anti-incumbency and farmers' discontent, while the Congress seeks to capitalize on these vulnerabilities. The assembly election results are expected to be announced on October 4.
