The party has been 9n frequent talks with the Congress party to form an alliance in the state.
Gupta highlighted the urgency of finalising candidates, given that the nomination deadline is only three days away.
“We’ve released the first list and soon you will get the second list. Now there is very little time left for the elections. We waited honestly (for the alliance) because the organisation is strong in every assembly and that strong organisation wanted us to contest the elections. We have shown our patience and after that, we released our list. I think the result will be positive for Haryana and BJP will be removed from Haryana,” Gupta said on Monday.
