Chandigarh: The results of the Haryana assembly elections may have settled the debate on the legacy of former deputy prime minister and Jat stalwart Devi Lal in the favour of his great-grandson Dushyant Chautala.

As Haryana on Thursday delivered a hung assembly with the ruling BJP emerging as the largest party with 40 seats, but still six short of the halfway mark (46) needed to form the next government. The Congress won 31 seats, Haryana Lokhit Party one each and the AAP, which contested 46 seats, was decimated.
