However, before the Lok Sabha elections, Khattar was replaced by Nayab Singh Saini. Manohar Lal Khattar is currently a Lok Sabha MP from Karnal seat of Haryana.
The term of the assembly in Haryana is ending on November 3. There are a total of 90 assembly seats in the state. In the last assembly elections held in the year 2019, no party got a majority on its own. BJP got the maximum 40 seats while Congress got 31 seats. Apart from this, Dushyant Chautala’s JJP got 10 seats. BJP and JJP formed the government in the state. However, the alliance of JJP and BJP broke before the Lok Sabha elections.
