Once a key force, INLD to fight only on 51 seats

Once the dominant political force in Haryana, the Indian National Lok Dal (INLD), whose patriarch, the late Chaudhary Devi Lal, was India’s deputy prime minister, has fielded just 51 candidates for elections to the 90-member state assembly with its ally Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) contesting another 38 seats.

The INLD started weakening after it lost to the Congress in 2005. However, the party bounced back in 2014 by emerging the principal opposition party in Haryana Vidhan Sabha with 19 legislators and INLD general secretary Abhay Chautala became the leader of Opposition in the assembly, pushing the Congress to the third position with 17 seats.
