INLD would not seek Cong support: Chautala

Chandigarh, Aug 28: Despite the lack of support from BJP, the Indian National Lok Dal (INLD) leader Om Prakash Chautala said that his party would not seek Congress support for Haryana provincial polls.

The BJP recently severed ties with INLD over a seat-sharing row.

Chautala asserted that parting ways with the BJP does not mean that they would tilt towards the Congress.

"Ideologically we are against the Congress and to give it a total defeat we shook hands with Congress' opponents many a times. We never stabbed anyone rather we have been betrayed," Chautala told reporters in Chandigarh on Thursday, Aug 27.

This is the second time the two parties have parted ways in the last five years.

State chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda recommended to the Governor dissolution of state assembly and demanded the election scheduled in Mar 2010 to be held early.
