== History ==
The HJC party was founded by former Chief Minister of Haryana Bhajan Lal in 2007 after breaking away from Indian National Congress. It had a good hold in [[Hisar district|Hisar]] and [[Fatehabad district|Fatehabad]] district.{{citation needed|date=February 2017}}

In August 2009, the HJC joined hands with the [[Bahujan Samaj Party]]. The alliance was however called off by the BSP before the Vidhan Sabha elections.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://indianexpress.com/article/india/politics/in-2-months-bsp-dumps-hjc-blames-bjp/|title=In 2 months,BSP dumps HJC,blames BJP|date=2009-09-03|newspaper=The Indian Express|access-date=2016-12-24}}</ref> In the [[2009 Indian general election|2009 Lok Sabha elections]], the party won in [[Hisar (Lok Sabha constituency)|Hisar]] where Lal emerged as winner. In the [[2009 Haryana Legislative Assembly election|2009 Vidhan Sabha elections]], the party contested 87 out of the 90 total seats and won six. But five of its MLA's defected to Indian National Congress to support the [[Bhupinder Singh Hooda]]-led government.

In September 2013, [[Kuldeep Bishnoi]] declared his support for the BJP by backing the party's Prime Ministerial candidate, [[Narendra Modi]].<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://articles.economictimes.indiatimes.com/2014-10-12/news/54928796_1_haryana-janhit-congress-adampur-seat-renuka-bishnoi/2|title=Two couples from Haryana's popular political families slug it out - Page2 - The Economic Times|newspaper=The Economic Times|access-date=2016-12-24}}</ref>

In 2014, the party aligned itself with the BJP-led [[National Democratic Alliance (India)|National Democratic Alliance]] to fight the general election in 2014. The HJC won the Hisar by-election.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.ndtv.com/article/india/eam-anna-says-defeat-a-lesson-for-congress-141806|title=Hisar by-poll: Kuldeep Bishnoi wins; Team Anna says defeat a lesson for Congress|date=17 October 2011|work=NDTV.com|access-date=31 May 2015}}</ref> However, in the [[2014 Indian general election|2014 general election]], HJC chief Bishnoi lost to [[Dushyant Chautala]] in the same parliamentary constituency.{{citation needed|date=February 2017}}
