BJP, which often attacks parties doing family politics in Haryana, has got entangled in its own web this time.
As part of its strategy to gain power for the third time, the BJP has given tickets to the family members of 10 leaders in this election battle.
In the previous elections, BJP has been accusing the big political families of Haryana of doing family politics. Now BJP is going to be the target of these political families in the election battle.

BJP has broken its tradition of one family ticket in Haryana by giving a ticket to Aarti Rao, daughter of Union Minister of State Rao Indrajit from Ateli.

Bhavya Bishnoi, son of former MP from Hisar and Bhiwani Kuldeep Bishnoi, will contest from Adampur. Kuldeep himself is not contesting the assembly elections this time, but the BJP has often accused Bhajan Lal and Kuldeep Bishnoi of nepotism in the past.
