With the passing of Rakesh Daultabad, the effective strength of the 90-member Haryana assembly has been reduced to 87. Previously, two seats became vacant after former Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar resigned from the Karnal assembly to facilitate Nayab Singh Saini’s entry, and Independent MLA Ranjit Chautala from Rania resigned from his assembly membership after joining the BJP.
Given the current composition of the House, the majority mark stands at 44.
