Dushyant Chautala to negotiate with BJP leadership on Deputy CM post tonight
New Delhi/IBNS: The BJP has agreed to offer three ministerial berths to JJP and currently the negotiations are on for the post of Deputy Chief Minister, media reports said.
Jananayak Janta Party(JJP) leader Dushyant Chautala is all set to meet BJP President and Home Minister Amit Shah at his residence to negotiate the demands.
After Haryana elected a hung Assembly, with BJP falling short of six MLAs from the majority mark, the Independents decided to support BJP form the government.
However, the saffron party had to face intense criticism after an image of Haryana Lokhit Party leader Gopal Kanda and Sirsa MLA, who is reportedly accused in nine criminal cases, including rape and abatement to suicide, being flown to Delhi for negotiating with BJP top brass in Delhi, for government formation, media reports said.
The party then dropped Kanda despite his offer of "unconditional" support and is in talks with Jananayak Janta Party(JJP) leader Dushyant Chautala, the reports added.
Meanwhile, the eight Independent candidates have said they would support BJP and were hopeful they will be "adjusted" in the ministry of the new state government, reports said.
