New Delhi: Haryana CM Manohar Lal Khattar and his political rival of Jannayak Janata Party (JJP) Dushyant Chautala, had all eyes on them as they arrived in their own styles to cast votes in the Haryana assembly elections on Monday. While Khattar rode a bicycle to cast his vote, the Chautala family arrived in a tractor.

Khattar first travelled by Janshatabdi Express from Chandigarh to his hometown Karnal in Haryana and then rode a bicycle to cast his vote.

"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. From the railway station in Karnal, he took an e-rickshaw to reach his home from where he rode bicycle to reach the polling booth that was located half a kilometre away from his residence.

On the other hand, Jannayak Janata Party (JJP) leader Dushyant Chautala and his family arrived on a tractor to cast their votes at a polling booth in Sirsa.

"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.
