New Delhi: Nayab Singh Saini, Haryana Chief Minister-elect, was unanimously elected as leader of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Legislature Party on Wednesday. Former Haryana Chief Minister and Union Minister Manohar Lal Khattar and former state minister Anil Vij proposed Saini’s name in the Legislature Party meeting held in Panchkula, Haryana. Saini after being chosen as leader of the Haryana BJP Legislature Party will take oath as Haryana CM for the second time on Thursday, October 17.

A key meeting of the BJP Legislature Party took place in Panchkula under the observation of central observers Union Home Minister Amit Shah and Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav.

Meanwhile, the BJP parliamentary board on Sunday appointed Shah and Yadav as central observers for the election of the state legislature party leader in Haryana.

Notably, bucking anti-incumbency, the ruling BJP under Saini’s leadership pulled off a hat-trick of wins in Haryana to retain power and halt Congress’ comeback attempt in the assembly elections.

The BJP secured a third term in the assembly polls in Haryana, results of which were declared on October 8. It won 48 seats against the Congress’ 37 in the 90-member assembly in the northern state
