An ENT specialist by training, the BJP candidate said the party gave him the poll ticket upon seeing his service record of three decades and dedication to serving people during the period which included postings as a civil surgeon in a few districts, including Rewari.

Considered close to Union Minister and Gurugram MP Rao Inderjit Singh, Kumar said the BJP will return to power for a third consecutive term. "South Haryana will play a big role in the BJP's win in the elections," he said.
