A local reporter interviewed Parmar and when asked about his exclusion from the candidate list, he responded,“I had thought that my name would be on the list...” He was reportedly been seeking a BJP nomination for the Bhiwani and Tosham constituencies, reported Hindustan Times, quoting JNC news.

When the interviewer attempted to console the BJP leader, stating the party will recognise his worth, Parmar started crying and said, as quoted by HT,“I had assured people that my name was being considered. What do I do now? I am helpless."

Earlier, the polling for 90-member seats in Haryana was scheduled for 1 October, but then rescheduled to 5 October by the Election Commission. The apex polls conducting body had cited the voting rights and traditions of the Bishnoi community, who commemorate their Guru Jambheshwar with a centuries-old practice, as the reason for the change in the date of polling.
