Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini will contest the elections from Ladwa, along with seven ministers from his Cabinet who will again test their mettle in the elections. Additionally, the seats of two MLAs have been changed.

The BJP has also given credence to outsiders in the selection of candidates. Among them, three former MLAS who left JJP and joined the BJP have been given tickets. Former MLA Shyam Singh Rana, who left INLD, will again contest from Radaur. Executive State President Shruti Chaudhary, who left Congress, has been fielded from Tosham.

Sanjay Kablana, who left JJP, has been made a candidate from Beri, while former minister Devendra Babli has been declared from Tohana, Ram Kumat Gautam from Safidon, and former minister Anoop Dhanak from Uklana. At the same time, BJP has expressed trust in Sunil Sangwan, who left his job as a jail superintendent to join politics, from Dadri.

In the first list of BJP candidates, the tickets for Power Minister Ranjit Singh Chautala, Minister of State for Sports Sanjay Singh, and Minister of State for Social Justice and Empowerment Bishambar Valmiki have been denied. The BJP has announced the names of 67 candidates in this list.
