NEW DELHI: The Aam Aadmi Party campaign in Haryana has left BJP pondering on what to do with potential ally, the Indian National Lok Dal. INLD , which has 30 seats in the 90 member Haryana assembly, has been in the dumps after the conviction of president Om Prakash Chautala and general secretary Ajay Chautala in a teacher recruitment scam. But it is said to command the support of a significant section of Jats in the state.“In ordinary times, INLD would have been a good alliance partner for BJP but because of AAP ’s focus on corruption, there is a section in BJP, especially some senior leaders from Haryana, who feel that this would not be a good move,” said a senior NDA leader.BJP’s PM candidate Narendra Modi who was in Rewari for an ex-servicemen rally last year shared the dais with Haryana Janhit Congress leader Kuldeep Bishnoi. HJC has the support of some elements of non-Jat votes in the state, but doesn’t have the political heft of the Chautalas. Bishnoi is the son of former chief minister Bhajan Lal, who quit Congress when Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda overshadowed others.Negotiators from NDA grouping, including Shiromani Akali Dal MP Naresh Gujral, have been trying to get INLD and HJC to have a triangular alliance with BJP but the saffron party’s hesitation, AAP’s focus on an anti-corruption plank and Bishnoi’s refusal to share an alliance with INLD have led to an impasse.“We have been meeting Kuldeep (Bishnoi) and trying to persuade him that it would be better to form a front against Congress, but talks are not making headway. We feel that Bishnoi could probably manage a seat, his own in the Lok Sabha polls, but Chautalas would add more,” said the senior leader.BJP is also enthused by the Jat vote in Haryana because of the support it gets from the community in western Uttar Pradesh after the Muzaffarnagar riots. “With Chautala, we can dominate the entire region,” the source said.Senior BJP leaders say that a call on the alliance will have to be taken as early as next week as BJP will begin finalizing tickets and releasing its first list on February 27. The entry of AAP at this stage and in a state where the party hopes to do well (they have fielded ideologue Yogendra Yadav from Gurgaon) has spooked BJP. “We don’t want the campaign to be hijacked because of the conviction of the Chautalas, we don’t know how much sympathy the family has been able to generate after the conviction,” a BJP source added.Haryana has 10 Lok Sabha seats and no party seems to be willing to concede any quarter in the fight.
