Bansi Lal will be next Haryana Chief Minister: HVP

ROHTAK, MAY 19. The Haryana Vikas Party secretary general, Surender Singh, today claimed that his party would emerge victorious in the Haryana Assembly elections, due in February 2005, and the party supreme, Bansi Lal, would be the next Chief Minister.

Presiding over a meeting of the State executive committee of the HVP held here to review the results of the last Lok Sabha elections and to chalk out party strategy for the Assembly elections, Mr. Singh said that the people of the State considered Mr. Bansi Lal as the best person for the coveted post of Chief Minister.

The people of the State voted against the ``anti-people'' policies of the Om Prakash Chautala-led Indian National Lok Dal (INLD) government in order to get rid off the Chautala regime, Mr. Singh observed and added that the people voted in favour of the Congress as they wanted to dislodge the Atal Bihari Vajpayee-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) Government at the Centre.

Claiming that the main contest in the Assembly elections would be between the HVP and the Congress, Mr. Surender Singh asserted that the people would vote overwhelmingly in favour of the HVP and the Chautala-led INLD would be wiped out from the electoral scene of Haryana.

Commending his party workers, the HVP leader said they were the backbone of the party and had been raising issues of public interest and opposing the ``anti-people'' policies of the Chautala government during the last over four years of INLD rule in the State.

He called upon the HVP workers to apprise the people of the policies of the party.

The executive committee decided to hold HVP workers' conferences at all district headquarters to strengthen the party.

Today's meeting was attended, among others, by the HVP Parliamentary board chairman, Kanwal Singh, and former Vidhan Sabha Speaker, Prof Chhattar Singh Chauhan.
