Indian National Lok Dal (INLD) is a political party based primarily in the Indian state of Haryana. It was initially founded as the Haryana Lok Dal (Rashtriya) by Devi Lal in 1996, who served as the Deputy Prime Minister of India.
The party emerged as a significant voice advocating for farmers' rights and rural development in the state of Haryana. It has played a crucial role in advocating for agricultural reforms and regional development as well. The party is generally considered to adhere to the ideology of regionalism and follows a centrist position within the spectrum of India's politics.[1]
The party is led by Om Prakash Chautala, the son of Devi Lal, both of whom have served as the former Chief Minister of Haryana. His son, Abhay Singh Chautala is the General Secretary.
On 27 January 2021, Abhay Singh Chautala had resigned as the only MLA from the party citing the BJP-led Union government’s refusal to accept farmers’ demands.[2] He was later re-elected from the Ellenabad constituency in a bypoll election on 2 November 2021.[3]
