Shambhavi Choudhary won the Bihar's Samastipur Lok Sabha seat, defeating Sunny Hazari of the Congress by a margin of 1,87,251 votes.
Shambhavi Choudhary of the Lok Janshakti Party (LJP) has made history by becoming one of the youngest Members of Parliament. The 25-year-old secured a landslide victory in Bihar's Samastipur Lok Sabha seat, defeating Sunny Hazari of the Congress by a margin of 1,87,251 votes.
In a recent interview with NDTV, Ms Choudhary discussed her remarkable achievement. Addressing the challenges of contesting in Bihar's deeply caste-driven society, Ms Choudhary, a part of the NDA coalition, said she had only focussed on development over divisive issues.
"When I went to the constituency, I did not talk of caste or religion," she stated. "I only talked about the development that has happened in Bihar in the last decade."
