Some Lesser Known Facts

Chandrani Murmu, a young Indian politician, hails from Odisha and is a member of the Biju Janata Dal (BJD).
She made history as the youngest Member of Parliament in India in 2019, achieving this at the age of 25.
Prior to her entry into politics, Chandrani, a mechanical engineer, was on the lookout for a government job after facing challenges in securing employment in the private sector.
Initially aspiring to work in private companies, she eventually set her sights on becoming a probationary officer in a bank or an assistant section officer in the Odisha Government.
Coming from a political family background, her maternal grandfather, Harihar Soren, had previously served as a Congress MP from the Keonjhar Constituency of Odisha in the 1980s.
Although she harbored a desire to enter politics, Chandrani had kept this wish to herself until her uncle, Harmohan Soren, encouraged her to contest in the Lok Sabha Elections.
Initially taking her uncle's suggestion lightly, she was eventually persuaded and decided to run for office. Consequently, she contested and emerged as the winner from the Keonjhar Constituency on 23 May 2019.
