Chandigarh, April 27
Udai Bhan (66), who has been named the new state Congress chief, in his first reaction to the development, said on Wednesday that the deficiencies which the organisation had been facing for some time had been removed.
Thanking Bhupinder Singh Hooda, he said it was the Rajya Sabha MP Deepender Hooda who had resolved the issue (of HPCC president) which was entangled for some time.
Four-time legislator
- Udai Bhan began his career from Lok Dal when he won 1987 Assembly poll from Hassanpur (SC)
- In 2000, he won as an Independent
- In 2005, he won on Congress ticket
- He emerged victorious from Hodal (SC) in 2014
- Udai Bhan’s father Gaya Lal won from Hassanpur (SC) in 1967 and 1977. Gaya Lal is infamous for changing three parties in a fortnight in 1967 and due to his defections, “Aaya Ram, Gaya Ram” phrase was coined
- Udai Bhan’s elder son Raj Gopal served as chairman, Municipal Council, Hodal, from 2016 to 2019
Bhan further said that the party would win more than eight seats in the 2024 Lok Sabha polls and would form the government after the next Haryana Vidhan Sabha elections. “All groupism within the party has ended,” he claimed.
Former Hodal MLA Udai Bhan started his career from the Lok Dal when he won the 1987 Assembly poll from Hassanpur (SC). He remained Chairman, Krishak Bharti Cooperative Limited (KRIBHCO), from 1989 to 1993.
