Janjivan Bureau / New Delhi : The Jannayak Janta Party (JJP) released its fourth list of 30 candidates on Thursday with party leader Dushyant Chautala contesting from Uchana Kalan.
Dushyant had contested from the same seat in 2014 but lost to Prem Lata, wife of former Union minister Birender Singh, by a margin of 7,480 votes.
The Assembly elections in Haryana will take place on October 21. The last day for filing nomination is October 4. The final results will be declared on October 24 after counting of votes.
Also on the list is dismissed BSF jawan Tej Bahadur Yadav, who will contest against CM Manohar Lal Khattar from Karnal.

So far, the JJP has released the names of 72 candidates.
It is yet to name Naina Chautala, who is likely to contest from Dabwali. Younger brother of Dushyant, Digvijay Chautala, could contest from Jind.
