Haryana's new Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini won a floor test at a special Assembly session convened on Wednesday. The development came a day after former Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar resigned as the Chief Minister and the BJP broke ranks with its ally Jannayak Janta Party (JJP).
Saini, who took oath as the Chief Minister on Tuesday following the surprise resignation of Manohar Lal Khattar, sent a letter of support of 48 MLAs to Governor Bandaru Dattatreya.
The development came amid differences between the BJP and JJP, headed by Dushyant Chautala, over seat-sharing for the upcoming Lok Sabha polls.
