About Ladwa

Ladwa

Ladwa assembly seat is part of Kurukshetra district. Haryana CM Nayab Saini will contest from here. He was handed the govt command in March after Manohar Lala Khattar resigned to run in the Lok Sabha elections.
 
Saini is BJP's CM face for Haryana Assembly elections.
 
He was elected to the Assembly in a by-poll contest from Karnal, the stronghold of Khattar. It is learned that Saini was keen to defend his Karnal seat in the elections but he has been “reluctantly” fielded from Ladwa, which is being seen as the “safest” seat for the BJP. In the Lok Sabha polls, the BJP won 47.14 per cent of the vote in the Ladwa Assembly segment. While this is lower than the 58.5 per cent it achieved in the 2019 Lok Sabha polls, it is a significant improvement over the 32.7 per cent it received in the 2019 Assembly elections.
 
In this seat, the Congress has named Mewa Singh, the incumbent MLA who won the 2019 polls by a narrow margin of 12,637 votes. AAP has named Joga Singh.
