Haryana Election 2024: Past Election Result

The 2019 elections resulted in a hung assembly, with no major party achieving a clear majority. The BJP secured 40 seats, followed by Congress with 31 seats. The JJP managed 10 seats, while the Indian National Lok Dal (INLD) obtained only one seat. The remaining 8 seats were won by independent candidates and smaller parties.

The majority mark in the Haryana assembly is 45 seats. Following the 2019 elections, the BJP formed an alliance with the JJP, leading to Manohar Lal Khattar serving as Chief Minister. However, this coalition collapsed in March of this year, prompting Khattar's resignation. On the same day, Nayab Singh Saini took the oath as Chief Minister and has been leading a minority government since May 2024, when three independent legislators withdrew their support.
