The government headed by Haryana CM Khattar resigns

Manohar Lal Khattar, the chief minister of Haryana, submitted his resignation to Governor Bandaru Dattatreya on Tuesday. His cabinet colleagues joined him in the Raj Bhavan.

Leaders of the Central BJP, such as former Tripura Chief Minister Biplab Kumar Deb and Union minister Arjun Munda, are in the state to supervise the modifications.

Sources informed PTI that the BJP parliamentary party would get together on Tuesday.

The BJP and the Jannayak Janata Party (JJP), headed by Deputy Chief Minister Dushyant Chautala, had a deteriorating relationship as they were unable to come to a consensus on seat-sharing in the state for the impending Lok Sabha elections.

In the 2019 elections, the BJP secured all 10 Lok Sabha seats in the state.

Currently, the JJP has 10 MLAs in the 90-member House, compared to 41 for the BJP. Six out of the seven independents also back the governing coalition.

The Indian National Lok Dal and the Haryana Lokhit Party both have one seat, while the major opposition Congress party has thirty MLAs.
