Chandigarh: With a neck-and-neck fight on between the ruling BJP and the Congress in Haryana as the state appears heading to a hung Assembly, the less than one-year-old Jannayak Janata Party's (JJP) Dushyant Chautala seems all set to play the kingmaker.
"Initial trends indicate that the JJP is performing well. It is too early to commit anything. We will wait and watch till 3 p.m. when the entire picture will be clear," she said.
It is learnt that the Congress and the BJP -- both were trying to reach out to the JJP to stitch an alliance.
Sources said the Congress high command gave a free hand to its two-time Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda to open parleys with Chautala for any future alliance.
The saffron party also is trying Akali Dal patron and five-time Punjab Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal to mediate with the JJP to have a post-poll understanding.
The Akali Dal has a pre-poll alliance with Om Prakash Chautala-led Indian National Lok Dal (INLD). The senior Chautala, who is Dushyant's grandpa, is serving a 10-year jail term in Tihar for his involvement in a teacher recruitment scam.
The JJP is a breakaway group of the INLD.
