Amid speculations that he has received an alliance offer from both Congress and BJP, JJP's Dushyant Chautala says he has not received a call from any party yet. There is also speculation that the saffron party is planning to approach Chautala, who has emerged as the kingmaker in the assembly elections.

"Haryana ki janta ka pyar mil raha hai. Badlaav ki nishaani hai. 75 paar toh fail hogaya, ab Yamuna paar karne ki baari hai. (We are getting the love of the people of Haryana. This is a sign of change. BJP's bid to cross 75 has failed, now they will have to cross the Yamuna)," he told the media on Thursday.
