In an intriguing development in Haryana's political landscape, newly appointed Chief Minister Nayab Saini has emerged as wealthier than his predecessor, Manohar Lal Khattar. This revelation comes from Saini's recent election affidavit, shedding light on the financial standing of the state's top leader.

Nayab Saini, who took over the Chief Minister's role just 56 days ago, has declared assets worth ₹4.78 crore. This includes ₹63.83 lakh in movable assets and ₹4.15 crore in immovable properties. Interestingly, Saini's wealth has seen a notable increase of ₹20 lakh since he assumed office less than two months ago.

One of the most striking aspects of Saini's portfolio is his ownership of a stone crusher in Himachal Pradesh's Sirmaur district. This business interest outside his home state adds a unique dimension to his financial profile.

Saini's educational background includes a law degree from Chaudhary Charan Singh University in Meerut, Uttar Pradesh. He is contesting the upcoming assembly elections from the Ladwa constituency, with his wife Suman Saini as the cover candidate.

The Chief Minister's assets include:

  • ₹1.7 lakh in cash - ₹28.40 lakh in bank deposits across six banks
  • Three 7-seater vehicles, including a 2020 model Innova Crysta
  • Two houses in Yamunanagar and Panchkula 
  • Two acres of agricultural land
  • Jewellery worth ₹2 lakh (and his wife owns jewellry worth ₹6.50 lakh) 

In contrast, former CM Manohar Lal Khattar, who is now a Union Minister, declared assets worth ₹2.54 crore during the recent Lok Sabha elections. Khattar's assets primarily consist of land and a house valued at ₹40 lakh, with no vehicles to his name.

This wealth comparison between the current and former Chief Ministers of Haryana offers a fascinating glimpse into the financial backgrounds of the state's political leaders. As Haryana gears up for its assembly elections, these financial disclosures are likely to be a topic of discussion among voters and political analysts alike.

The Haryana Story will continue to monitor and report on such developments as the state moves closer to its crucial assembly polls.
