Mohan Lal Badoli’s Political Journey
In July of the previous year, Badoli, a first-time lawmaker and a member of the Brahmin community, was appointed as the president of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Haryana. He took over this important role from Nayab Saini, who was made the Chief Minister of Haryana in preparation for the upcoming Assembly elections.
Badoli has a strong connection with the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), a well-known organization in India. His political journey began when he made history by winning the Zila Parishad election in Murthal. He became the first-ever BJP candidate to win this election, which was a significant achievement.
In 2024, Badoli ran for the Lok Sabha elections from Sonipat, hoping to represent the area in Parliament. However, he lost the election to Satpal Brahamchari of the Congress party, with a margin of more than 21,000 votes. Despite the loss, his involvement in Haryana politics remains notable.
