This is not only the result of the speed gained by making a hat -trick in the Haryana assembly elections, but the attitude of the Congress also faded, where leaders like Bhupendra Hooda did not enter the election campaign. The BJP gained a magical figure by repeating the triple engine government, emphasizing better coordination and urban development.
