Dhunela village, with its 1,300 voters, is a prime example of this transformation. The village is home to several families who were local landowners when the real estate boom hit Gurgaon years ago, turning them rich overnight. However, residents like Sachin Yadav, the 50-year-old numberdar of Dhunela village, are more concerned about the lack of interior roads and the impact of the toll plaza at Ghamroj on the rental income of flat owners.
The constituency is witnessing a close fight between the Congress's Rohtas Singh, the BJP's Tejpal Tanwar, and independent candidate Javed Ahmed. The candidates have similar stories to Yadav, having acquired land worth crores in Sohna and adjoining areas. However, residents are more concerned about the performance of the government in the last 10 years, particularly with regards to the condition of government hospitals and the lack of interior roads.
Berka village, with its 6,000 people and 1,200 voters, is another example of the transformation in the area. The village has colossal houses, and the children attend GD Goenka school. However, residents like Dinesh Khatana, brother of the sarpanch, are concerned about the lack of good hospitals and the poor condition of the government hospital. As the Haryana assembly polls approach, residents of Sohna are more concerned about the local issues than the usual poll promises of bijli, sadak, and paani. They are looking for a government that will address their concerns and improve the overall quality of life in the area.
