Haryana assembly election - 9.53% voter turnout recorded till 9 am
Today's single-phase election, which will see over 2 crore voters pick 90 members of the state parliament, is expected to be fiercely contested in Haryana. Along with 1,027 other candidates, the election will determine the fate of prominent political personalities such as chief minister Nayab Singh Saini, former chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda, Vinesh Phogat, and Dushyant Chautala of the JJP.

Regional contenders are vying for influence in the next government formation, including Arvind Kejriwal's aam aadmi party (AAP) and Dushyant Chautala's Jannayak Janta party (JJP), which teamed up with the bjp till early 2024.
90 seats in the state will have polling from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. At 20,632 polling places, more than 2 crore voters—including 8,821 centenarians—are anticipated to cast ballots.
