The Rohtak constituency in Haryana is set to declare its new Member of Legislative Assembly (MLA) today as vote counting for the 90 assembly seats across the state begins at 8 a.m. Rohtak, which went to the polls on October 5, is part of the state-wide single-phase election. The results of the 2024 Haryana Assembly elections will be determined today with the counting of votes underway.

In the past three assembly elections, Rohtak has seen a competitive battle, particularly between candidates from the Indian National Congress (INC) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
