Since 2015, The Wire has done just that.
But we can continue only with your support.
The Wire visited Nimriwali village in Haryana's Bhiwani-Mahendragarh Lok Sabha constituency. In 2019, the BJP's Dharambir Singh had comfortably won this seat by more than four lakh votes. This time, with a change in candidate in the form of Rao Daan Singh, the Congress's hopes are high.
BJP faces massive anti-incumbency in Haryana's 10 seats due to the farmers' crisis. The primary reason for this resentment among the farmer community is the non-fulfilment of their demands.
The Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU), headed by Rakesh Tikait, is actively campaigning against the BJP in this election.
