Ambala Cantt assembly seat is counted among the high profile seats in Haryana. This seat is in the possession of BJP and former state Home Minister Anil Vij is the MLA from here. Vij has become MLA from here five times. This is the sixth time he is contesting the elections. Vij is counted among the powerful leaders of Haryana BJP. Congress has fielded Piramal Pari against Vij. The trends of results on this seat will start emerging from this morning.
BJP candidate Anil Vij is counted among the prominent leaders of Haryana BJP. Vij is also considered to have a good hold in Ambala Cantt area. This is the reason why BJP has fielded Vij from this seat for the fourth consecutive time. In the last elections, there were no political parties even remotely in front of BJP on this seat, but the political atmosphere of Haryana has changed. In such a situation, a tough competition can be seen here also.
In this election, apart from BJP and Congress, JJP has fielded Avtar Kardhan and INLD has fielded Omkar Singh. The way the exit poll projections have come out, Congress can make a big play in this election. However, this is no less than a big challenge for Congress because Anil Vij is considered to have a strong hold on this seat and his popularity also dominates among the public.
Talking about the 2019 assembly elections, BJP's Anil Vij got 64571 votes. The surprising thing is that at that time Congress was at third position on this seat. Independent candidate Chitra Sarwara was at second place, who got 44406 votes. Whereas Congress candidate Venu Singla got only 8,534 votes. Then the total number of voters on this seat was only 8,534. Talking about vote percentage, BJP was successful in getting 53.04 percent votes on its own. At the same time, the independent candidate had to be satisfied with 36.48 percent votes and Congress had to be satisfied with only 7.01 percent votes.
