In 2009, it was Mohammed Ilyas of the INLD who won in the electoral race by a margin of 2,688 votes. But in 2014, Ilyas lost to Rahish Khan, who contested as an Independent contender and obtained 34,281 votes. However, this year, the BJP decided to break off the mould by putting up a debutante Hindu Dalit woman candidate, Nauksham Chaudhary (28). Unlike most contenders the region has seen in the past, Nauksham has the kind of resume the region has never heard of. She holds a bachelor’s degree in History from the prestigious Miranda House college in Delhi, along with a Masters’ degree in Luxury Brand Management from Italy and another in Communications from London. On the other hand, the Congress has placed its bet on three-time MLA Ilyas, a turncoat who joined the grand old party during the Lok Sabha polls after quitting the INLD and JJP in quick succession. Sitting MLA Rahish Khan, who had joined the BJP hoping to get a party ticket, too, has jumped into the fray, once again as an Independent. While the INLD has pitted Subhan Khan and its splinter outfit Jannayak Janta Party (JJP) has fielded Iqbal.
