Some X users interpreted Hooda's statement as a hint to name Vardhan Yadav as deputy chief minister if Congress forms government in the state.

The rally appeared to galvanise support for Vardhan Yadav, who has been campaigning on a platform of development and infrastructure improvement in Badshahpur.

The Badshahpur assembly seat has seen a surge in political activity with parties intensifying their efforts as the election date approaches. 

Yadav's campaign has been focusing on addressing long-standing local issues like waterlogging, traffic congestion, and waste management, promising a transformation if elected.

Deepender Hooda's involvement adds a layer of prestige and political clout to Vardhan Yadav's campaign.
