CHANDIGARH: Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Saturday announced that the BJP will contest the upcoming Haryana assembly elections, due before October, independently under the leadership of Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini. Addressing BJP leaders and workers during a meeting of the party's extended state executive in Panchkula, Amit Shah emphasized that there should be no doubt that the BJP would have no tie-up for the state polls. Despite being a small state, Haryana contributes as much as 4% to the nation’s GDP. Former Home Minister of Haryana Anil Vij said, “Union Home Minister Amit Shah is a source of strength, and wherever he goes, he energizes the workers. With elections approaching, we must fight with full power, strength, and enthusiasm because Amit Shah is the Chanakya of today's politics.
