Poonam Mahajan: She can be the woman face for West Bengal to deal with Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee
Poonam Mahajan is flamboyant BJP MP from Mumbai North Central. She defeated heavyweight Priya Dutt in the 2014 Lok Sabha Election. She made her entry into the politics because of the name and fame of her father. However, in last few years, she showed that nepotism might have helped her to quickly get Lok Sabha ticket, but she has capability to make her presence felt in the Indian politics. Seeing her impeccable performance as a politician and her popularity among youngsters of India, the BJP has appointed her as the National President of its youth wing – Bharatiya Janta Yuva Morcha (BJYM). It is also said that the Bharatiya Janata Party has found a woman face in Poonam Mahajan for West Bengal to deal with Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee.
Apart from politics, Poonam has deep interest in issues related to women empowerment as well as sports. In fact, she is the first woman President of Basketball Federation of India.
Poonam was actually reluctant to join politics. Rahul Mahajan, her brother, was expected to take forward the legacy of Pramod Mahajan. However, Rahul turned out to be a rogue brat. He was arrested for drugs. He was also in controversy for beating his first wife. He made a mockery of the Mahajan family by working in Big Boss and that idiotic show – Rahul Ka Swamwar. These events ensured that there isn’t any future for Rahul in politics. And, hence, Poonam had to take the baton to keep the name of her father intact in public life.
