The MLAs who failed to get re-nomination do not get along with the chief minister Manohar Lal Khattar who has failed to perform during his stint, but is still rated most favourable for the top slot for simple reason that powerful Jat community is divided again into three. The chief minister had a major say in the ticket distribution.
Two ministers are among the seven MLAs were denied a party ticket in the first list of 78 candidates that party announced recently for the October 21 state assembly polls. Deputy Speaker Santosh Yadav, who represented Ateli constituency in Mahendergarh district, too was denied party ticket to re-contest from the seat.
However, among the ministers who have been renominated include Capt Abhimanyu, Ram Bilas Sharma, Anil Vij, Krishan Kumar Bedi, Karan Dev Kamboj, Kavita Jain and O P Dhankar.
