While interacting with the media, Hooda said that Rajesh Joon and Ravi Kharti have withdrawn their nomination papers and will work to ensure Joon’s victory from Bahadurgarh.

“ In the 10 years of government rule in the state, Congress had worked for the betterment of people. Now, we are geared up for the election campaign and people will uproot Bharatiya Janata Party(BJP) government from Haryana”, he added.
