In its appointment of 32 district presidents, Congress signalled a shift from its traditional Jat-centric voter base to build more inclusive caste coalition to challenge BJP.
There were sceptics who flagged against going all out with Hoodas & to reach out to his rival & Dalit leader Kumari Selja. But all such doubts were cast aside in run-up to polls.
Selja did not attend the Wednesday launch of the party manifesto and has lately not been campaigning on the ground. Her silence could negatively impact party's electoral chances.
Daughter of former Union minister, late Chaudhary Dalbir Singh, Kumari Selja ventured into politics with a byelection in 1988. She won Sirsa seat in the 1991 and 1996 Lok Sabha elections.
In an interview with ThePrint, Congress's Sirsa candidate calls electoral bonds India's 'biggest scam so far'. Any decision on CM candidature to be taken by high command, she says.
Selja launched ‘Congress Sandesh Yatra’ in Hisar two days after Hooda kicked off ‘Ghar Ghar Congress’ from Jind. Both claim to be promoting message of Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra.
Rival groups within Haryana Congress have been clashing ever since party-appointed coordinators started meeting workers to record their preference for district chiefs & office bearers.
1st hearing of Sandeep Singh’s bail plea was held Tuesday & case is now listed for 13 September.

American objectives are unmet. They neither have muscle nor motivation to resume the war. As for Iran, the regime didn’t just survive, it’s now led by more radical individuals.
