"See, we have a parliamentary board that decides on critical issues such as the Chief Minister's face," Saini said.

While expressing confidence in winning a third term in Haryana, Saini further said that if the party fails to perform, it will be his responsibility as he is the party's face in Haryana.

He also rejected the predictions of the exit polls that predicted a Congress win in the Assembly polls.

The Haryana assembly elections on Saturday saw a turnout of nearly 67 per cent, with several exit polls predicting a clear majority for the Congress, which is eyeing a comeback after a decade.

In the elections, the BJP is eyeing getting a third term, while the Bhupinder Singh Hooda-led Congress is working to come back to power after ten years.
