Gurgaon Assembly Elections 2024: Key Contest
The key contest in the Gurgaon seat is between the BJP and other parties. The BJP has won the seat twice in 2019 and 2014. Congress on the other hand has given party tickets to Mohit Grover in the high-octane poll battle. In the last election, Grover contested as an independent candidate and finished second. Now contesting with the Congress symbol, he may give a tough contest to the BJP, especially when the BJP has not given the ticket to its sitting MLA.
