The party was also set to win a majority of the chiefs of municipalities and town panchayats as well as the members of those bodies.

Update : 13th Oct. 2011, An exit poll, conducted by C-Voters, suggested that Congress candidate Jai Prakash (INC) was likely to finish a distant third from his nearest rivals -- Kuldeep Bishnoi of Haryana Janhit Congress (HJC) and Ajay Chautala of Indian National Lok Dal (INLD). Exit poll results suggest that the HJC was likely to retain the seat, which got vacant following the death of sitting MP Bhajan Lal, father of Bishnoi.
The exit poll suggested that Bishnoi would secure more than 40 per cent against Chautala's 32 per cent and Prakash's 17 per cent. Prakash was hoping to regain the seat from the HJC under the leadership of Haryana Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda.
Taking the Anna factor into consideration, as many as 29 per cent voters deserted Congress. The biggest gainer of anti-Congress wave was HJC-BJP combine as it pulled more than half of these voters, while the INLD secured votes of around 40 per cent of them. There was no impact of Anna's appeal on around 15.5 per cent voters, as they continued with their faith in the grand old party. (Source: India Today)
