"We went to the public (for votes), they accepted us and we are going to form the government again and with a good majority," a confident Khattar told reporters in Karnal city, some 100 km from the state capital Chandigarh. Asked about travelling in a train, he replied: "I am a commoner and have come to vote as the common man." He travelled by train from Chandigarh to Karnal city.

"I hope every citizen will vote to give a new direction to Haryana, which will strengthen the farmers of the state. If the (BJP) wave is there, then why Prime Minister had to come for five times and their national president (Amit Shah) had to cancel his rallies. In Haryana, the key issues are unemployment, security, right price for farmer's production, among others," Dushyant said here. Watch here: (inputs from agencies)
