He is serving as Member of Parliament, Lok Sabha, the lower house of the parliament representing Nagaur. He is founder and president of Rashtriya Loktantrik Party. He has been elected to the Rajasthan Legislative Assembly for four-terms from Khinvsar constituency since 2008. He is also a two term member of Lok Sabha, the lower house of the parliament from Nagaur.[1][2][3]

Early life and education

[edit]
Beniwal with his mother Mohini Devi

Beniwal was born on 2 March 1972 to Ramdev Beniwal and Mohini Devi in Barangaon village of Nagaur district in Rajasthan.[4] He belongs to Jat community.[5] He did Bachelor of Arts from University of Rajasthan in 1993 and then he did Bachelor of Laws in 1998.[6]

His younger brother Narayan Beniwal, is a former member of Rajasthan Legislative Assembly.[7] His father Ramdev Beniwal was also a two term member of Rajasthan Legislative Assembly from Mundwa constituency.[8]

Political career

[edit]

Student politics

[edit]

Beniwal was initially exposed to politics due to his political family as his father, Ramdev Beniwal, became a Member of the Rajasthan Legislative Assembly from Mundwa constituency for two terms in 1977 and 1985. He first entered politics when he became president of Rajasthan College in 1995 and then he became president of the Rajasthan University Student Union in 1997, having previously won the University Law College in 1996.[9]

Mainstream Indian politics

[edit]
  • He successfully organised five Kisan Hunkar Maha Rallies in Nagaur, Barmer, Bikaner, Sikar, Jaipur and launched a political party called Rashtriya Loktantrik Party with an election symbol of "Bottle" in Jaipur on 29 October 2018.[13]
  • In 2023, Beniwal won Rajasthan Assembly elections by defeating BJP's Rewant Ram with a margin of 2059 votes. Beniwal secured his seat in Rajasthan assembly for consecutive fourth term.[17]
  • In 2024, Beniwal won Indian general elections from Nagaur Constituency in alliance with INC by defeating BJP candidate Jyoti Mirdha with a margin of 42,225 votes. Beniwal secured his seat in Lok Sabha for consecutive second term.[18]
  • After the 2024 Indian general elections, the Khinvsar Assembly seat is vacant as Beniwal resigned from the 16th Rajasthan Assembly after being elected to the 18th Lok Sabha. Beniwal gave RLP ticket to his wife, Kanika Beniwal, for the 2024 Rajasthan Assembly by-election for the Khinvsar seat.[19]
  • On the eve of the 2024 Rajasthan Assembly by-elections, Beniwal fielded his wife Kanika from the Khinvsar constituency on the ticket of the Rashtriya Loktantrik Party, but Kanika lost the by-elections to the BJP's Rewant Ram Danga. Khinvsar seat is considered a bastion for the Beniwal family because since the creation of this constituency in 2008, Hanuman won this seat four times, i.e., in 2008, 2013, 2018, and 2023, and his younger brother Narayan in 2019 by-elections. It was the first time since the creation of the Khinvsar constituency that a person outside the Beniwal family won this seat in 2024 by RLP former member and BJP's Rewant Ram Danga.[20] In the 2024 Rajasthan by-elections, both Congress and BJP fielded their candidates against RLP Kanika Beniwal, and also two influential political families from the Jat community, i.e., Mirdha and Maderna, criticised Beniwal in the by-elections [21]

Farmer protest

[edit]

In 2020, Beniwal joined the protest in Delhi against the farmer bills, calling it 'Anti-Farmers'. He went on to say that if he had been present in the Lok Sabha, he would have torn up the farm bills.[22]

Rashtriya Loktantrik Party

[edit]

On 29 October 2018, Beniwal founded the Rashtriya Loktantrik Party, becoming its president and national convenor in the process.[23] This made him one of the most influential politicians of Rajasthan since Rashtriya Loktantrik Party (RLP) is the only successful party in the state besides Indian National Congress and Bhartiya Janta Party.[24]

Membership in governing bodies

[edit]

In December 2024, Beniwal became member of All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Jodhpur governing body along with P.P. Chaudhary.

Personal life

[edit]

He married Kanika Beniwal on 9 December 2009, with whom he has a son (Ashutosh) and a daughter (Divya).[25][26] He is a follower and disciple of the Rajasthani folk hero-deity Veer Teja.[27][28] Kanika hails from Sri Ganganagar and did Bachelor of Science from Mohanlal Sukhadia University, Udaipur.[29] On the eve of 2024 Rajasthan Assembly By-elections, Kanika filed nomination from Khinwsar as a member of the Rashtriya Loktantrik Party but lost to BJP Rewant Ram Danga by 13,901 votes.[30][31]
