The BJP has formed its third consecutive government in Haryana after winning 48 out of 90 seats in the assembly elections, while the Congress secured 37 seats.
Hours after taking oath as the cabinet minister in the newly formed government in Haryana, BJP leader Anil Vij denied the speculations of him claiming to become Chief Minister of the state.
"I had never said that I wanted to become the CM. Information was spread amongst my supporters and workers that Anil Vij doesn't want to be the CM or doesn't want to take any responsibility...Till now, I have done all the tasks that the party has given me. If the party gives me this responsibility, then I will fulfil it," Anil Vij told media persons.
Former Deputy Chief Minister Anil Vij, along with MLAs such as Shruti Choudhary, MLA Krishan Lal Panwar from Israna, Rao Narbir Singh from Badshahpur, and Mahipal Dhanda from Panipat, were inducted as ministers in CM Saini's Cabinet earlier today.
