KANPUR: Strange it may sound but in the 2024 general elections, at least seven MPs from a single district, Etawah, have made it to the 18th Lok Sabha. If we include two members of the Rajya Sabha as well, Etawah will perhaps emerge as the only district in the country which has sent nine of its natives to Parliament.
To start with Lok Sabha MPs first, of the 37 Parliamentarians from Samajwadi Party, five of them belong to the party’s first family – the Yadav clan – which hails from Etawah itself.
The list includes Akhilesh Yadav (elected from Kannauj), wife Dimple Yadav (from Mainpuri) and cousins Dharmendra Yadav (Azamgarh), Akshay Yadav (Firozabad) and Aditya Yadav (Badaun). The present Lok Sabha tally also includes SP’s Etawah MP Jitendra Dohre who won the LS polls by a margin of over 58,000 votes.
