Shruti Choudhry filed her papers from the Tosham seat. She was accompanied by her mother and Rajya Sabha MP Kiran Choudhry and the BJP’s Haryana in-charge Biplab Kumar Deb.

Congress nominee Ashok Arora filed his papers from the Thanesar seat in Kurukshetra district. He was accompanied by senior party leader and former Haryana chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda.

Thursday is the last day for filing nominations for the assembly polls.

The scrutiny of the nomination papers will be conducted on September 13 and nominations can be withdrawn till September 16.

The ruling BJP is eyeing a hat-trick in the assembly polls but faces a stiff challenge from a resurgent Congress, which is looking to cash in on the anti-incumbency factor.
