Youngest MPs Elected in the 2024 Lok Sabha Polls: Meet the New Faces - The 2024 Lok Sabha elections have ushered in a new wave of young leaders, challenging age barriers and reshaping India's political landscape. Among them are four 25-year-olds who have emerged victorious, securing seats in the lower house of Parliament. Notably, three of these trailblazers are women: Priya Saroj, Shambhavi Choudhary, and Sanjana Jatav.

Pushpendra Saroj Pushpendra Saroj, the youngest male member of the Lok Sabha, holds degrees in accounting and management from Queen Mary University of London. Representing the Samajwadi Party, he won from the Kaushambhi constituency, defeating two-term BJP MP Vinod Sonkar by a margin of 1.03 lakh votes. His father, Inderjit Saroj, is a member of the UP Assembly.

"I want to focus on the development of my constituency and will make a conscious effort not to get entangled in local politics," Pushpendra stated after his victory.

Priya Saroj Priya Saroj, a 25-year-old Supreme Court lawyer, made a successful debut in electoral politics on a Samajwadi Party ticket. She won from the Machhlishahr seat, defeating her nearest rival by 35,850 votes. Priya is the daughter of former MP Tufani Saroj.

Shambhavi Choudhary Shambhavi Choudhary, daughter of Ashok Choudhary, a minister in the Nitish Kumar cabinet in Bihar, clinched victory in the Samastipur constituency. She defeated her nearest rival, Sunny Hazari of Congress, with a comfortable margin. Sunny Hazari is the son of JD(U) minister Maheshwar Hazari. Prime Minister Narendra Modi had previously lauded Shambhavi as the youngest NDA candidate while addressing a campaign rally.

Sanjana Jatav Sanjana Jatav emerged victorious from the Bharatpur constituency in Rajasthan. The 25-year-old defeated BJP's Ramswaroop Koli by a margin of 51,983 votes. Despite losing in the 2023 Assembly elections to BJP's Ramesh Khedi by just 409 votes, Sanjana is married to Kaptan Singh, a Rajasthan police constable.
