Nayab Saini has been sworn in as the Chief Minister of Haryana
Nayab Saini has been sworn in as the Chief Minister of Haryana, with the presence of the Prime Minister and key NDA allies at the ceremony. At 54 years old, Saini is serving his second term in this role, solidifying the BJP's unprecedented third consecutive term in office in the state. The swearing-in ceremony took place at the Parade Ground near Chandigarh, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, and several BJP leaders and 18 Chief Ministers from NDA-ruled states in attendance.
This event, held just prior to key assembly elections in Maharashtra and Jharkhand, is viewed as a demonstration of the party's strength. Haryana Governor Bandaru Dattatreya officiated the administration of the oath of office and secrecy to Mr. Saini, who assumed the role of chief minister in March, succeeding former chief minister Manohar Lal Khattar. In addition to Mr. Saini, BJP leaders Anil Vij, Krishan Lal Panwar, and Rao Narbir Singh were sworn into office. Mr. Saini has been involved in politics for almost three decades. Born in 1970, he commenced his political career under the guidance of Mr. Khattar.
Mr. Saini was elected as an MLA from Naraingarh in 2014, and subsequently appointed to the state Cabinet in 2016. His ascension to fame occurred while serving as a Member of Parliament representing Kurukshetra, a position he secured in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections by defeating Nirmal Singh of the Congress party by a substantial margin. Prior to his inauguration, Mr. Saini engaged in a series of religious visits, paying homage at Valmiki Bhawan, a nearby gurdwara, and the Mansa Devi temple in Panchkula.
The BJP succeeded in securing a third consecutive term in Haryana, against all expectations. During the October 5th state assembly elections, the BJP secured an exceptional victory by winning 48 out of the 90 seats. The Congress, the main opposition party, secured 37 seats in the election, whereas smaller regional parties such as the Jannayak Janta Party (JJP) and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) did not achieve notable success. The Indian National Lok Dal (INLD), formerly a dominant political entity, now holds only two seats.
