Congress on Wednesday announced 40 more candidates for the Haryana assembly elections. The prominent name among them is that of Aditya Surjewala, son of party general secretary Randeep Surjewala, who has been given a ticket from Kaithal. Congress has so far announced a total of 81 candidates for Haryana. It has not yet announced candidates for nine seats, while the last date for nomination is September 12.
Meanwhile, there has been speculation about an alliance between the Congress and the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) for the past few days, although Arvind Kejriwal’s party has announced 70 candidates so far.
