I appreciate Prof. Sampat Singh for such a bold speech. Ek ek point wahi hai jo hum log itne din se discuss kar rahe hein. THIS IS THE TRUTH.
Atleast we found one man in the party who can speak openly the truth. Na to babbu bete ee sare haryane ne hank rahe they. (Though Ajay seems to be a gentle person)
Come on INLD workers and members ... this way only you can improve INLD ... which was really a good party during times of Devi Lal. You can again do that.
I know few members who have taken initiative for the same ... Anil Sangwan has written good number of points and dropped at their head office. May those will be heard or read. Others also should .... Galat karne walon ko sheesha dikhana jaroori hai. Sahi ko sahi kahena bhi jaroori hai.
I thank the people of Haryana too ... specially Hissar who have given Prof. Sampat Singh a good fight and courage to speak the truth out. Logon ne sahi ko sahi kaha tabhi un sahi leaders mein jaan aai hai.

Workers of the INLD are not able to digest three consecutive defeats of their party.
Some workers have started uttering something, though feebly, to even think of which was considered blasphemous in the tightly controlled regional party. A demand is being made in certain quarters of the INLD that there should be a change in the leadership.
This demand was first raised at a party meeting held in Kurukshetra a few days ago, where some workers said in the presence of Haryana INLD chief Ashok Arora that the next Assembly elections should be contested under the leadership of party secretary-general Ajay Singh if the party was to survive. One or two speakers even went to the extent of suggesting that party president Om Prakash Chautala and his younger son Abhey Singh should “take rest for some time”. Ajay is the elder son of the former Chief Minister.
Similar sentiments, though in guarded language, were expressed at a closed-door meeting of the party executive held in Hisar on June 1 to discuss the reasons behind the party’s defeat. Though after the meeting Chautala had rationalised the party’s defeat by saying that these elections were contested on national issues and not state issues, at least one senior leader is believed to have called a spade a spade at the meeting.
Informed sources say former Finance Minister Sampat Singh told the meeting that the party lost because of its “commercialisation” when it was in power. He said the people had not forgiven the party for this. He said many who enriched themselves during INLD rule worked against the party in certain constituencies while they professed loyalty to the party in others.
He said it was wrong to say that the party lost because of national issues. The party had lost because of its image. There were many other reasons, including the belief of certain leaders that their private life would not reflect on the party’s image.
He said people were aware what sort of company these leaders kept. (Perhaps directed to Abhay)
Regretting that in his entire political career he had not seen the party in a worse situation than now, Sampat Singh said the party had met this fate because it had deviated from the policies of former Deputy Prime Minister Devi Lal.
In a hard-hitting speech, Sampat Singh said the INLD used to criticise former Chief Ministers Bansi Lal and Bhajan Lal for “killing” farmers. But people had not forgotten what had happened in Kandela when the INLD was in power. (At that time nine farmers were killed in police firing.)
The embittered leader said now incidents more serious than in Kandela were taking place. But the dispute was resolved by Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda amicably within three or four days. But in Kandela farmers blocked roads for more than a month but no effort was made to redress their grievances.
People had not forgiven this arrogance of the INLD leadership.
Sampat Singh said in spite of allegations of corruption, Hooda’s image was that of an honest man.
Time will tell whether what Sampat Singh and some of the party workers had said will prove to be just the proverbial storm in a teacup or it will lead to bigger things
