Campaigning on the last day of poll campaign for  the Haryana Assembly polls, former CM of Bihar Nitish Kumar, President of the Janata Dal (United) Sharad Yadav, leaders of the Samajwadi Party and senior Minister of Uttar Pradesh Shivpal Yadav, who is brother of former UP CM Mulayam Singh Yadav visited various Assembly segments in Haryana seeking votes for the candidates of the Indian National lok Dal (INlD).

Kumar addressed election rallies in Satnali in Mahendergarh district, Bhiwani and Hisar, Shivpal Yadav in Sohna in Gurgaon along with JD (U) leader KC Tyagi. They attacked both the Congress and BJP. Sharad Yadav addressed the rallies in Nahad of Kosli assembly segment in district Rewari and Sohna. Describing Chaudhary Devi lal as “Yugpurush”, Nitish Kumar in his speech termed both Congress and BJP as the parties of the rich.

“If a capitalist become the king of this country, then the general masses will become beggars. In order to end these capitalist forces, the Janata Dal family has to get united”, he said. Nitish said that apart from Haryana, Devi lal took special care of Bihar as well. “In this hour of struggle, we can not forget the Devi lal family. Each and every section is with Chautala. While Devi lal was unanimously decided as the Prime Minister of the country, he gave the crown to V.P.Singh”, he added.

Terming INlD as a party which follows the ideology of Devi lal, the former Bihar CM said that similar to the year 1987, today there is a big responsibility on the people of the Haryana.

Nitish also took BJP to task stating that the union government was working in contradiction with the promises made with the people and the PM Modi has reduced himself as PM of just one State - Gujarat.

Speaking at a rally in Nahad, Sharad Yadav said that Congress and BJP are like mother-in-law and daughter-in-law and both indulge into the politics of opportunism.
