Politics has heated up after Congress MP Imran Masood compared Bhagat Singh with Hamas. Former Union Minister of State Sanjeev Balyan has given a sharp reaction to Imran Masood’s statement. Sanjeev Balyan said that Sardar Bhagat Singh is a source of inspiration for crores of youth of this country. Comparing them with any terrorist organization is extremely shameful and unfortunate.

It is an insult to the country to compare such a great revolutionary with a terrorist organization.” During this time, Sanjeev Baliyan also made a revelation related to his personal life.

Current and former MP of BJP
Let me tell you, voting has been going on since Tuesday (August 12) for the post of Secretary of Constitution Club. The contest is also considered interesting because BJP’s 7 -time BJP MP Rajiv Pratap Rudy is standing in front of BJP’s former BJP MP Sanjeev Balyan.

Rajiv Pratap Rudy has been posted unopposed for the last 25 years as Secretary. However, this time Sanjeev Balyan decided to challenge him and make the election fun. Both MP and former MP will decide the fate of BJP leaders.

When will the Constitution Club election results come?
The Constitution Club of India was established in 1947. It is considered a social platform for MPs and former MPs. In such a situation, MPs and former MPs of all parties are coming to vote in this election. The counting of votes will start from 5.00 pm on August 12. It is believed that there will be more than 500 votes, because there is a lot of enthusiasm among MPs.

Lutyens Delhi’s prestigious Constitution Club of India is currently at the center of political stir. This time in the election of the post of secretary of the club to be held on 12 August 2025, this time the contest is between two BJP veteran leaders Rajiv Pratap Rudy and Sanjeev Kumar Ballian. Voting will be held from 11 am to 4 pm, while the counting of votes will start from 5 pm and the results will be declared by late evening.

This election is not just a club post, but also the election of prestige between two veteran leaders of BJP. According to sources, Rudy has the support of the party’s “Delhi-Luties” camp, while Ballian gets the “UP-West” camp. Ethnic equations and regional politics are also making this competition more interesting.

The special thing about this election is that there are about 1200 MPs and former MP voters, including many big leaders like Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Amit Shah, Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi, Mallikarjun Kharge. On August 12, voting will be held from 11 am to 4 pm and counting will start from 5 pm.

Why is the election special?

1. Reputation vs. Management Skills- The post of Secretary is not just an administrative responsibility, but it determines the identity of the club, the quality of its events and the scope of networking. The person sitting here becomes the center of many informal dialogues of the politics of the country.

2. Old experience vs new energy- This time there are also candidates in the election whose parliamentary experience is old, but this is his first challenge in the administration of the club. On the other hand, experienced candidates are making the success of their long networks and old events their strength.

3. Important place in Delhi’s power diary- Club programs include policy-makers, journalists, diplomats and experts from various fields. The secretary here plays a central role in the operation of this ‘power network’.

4. Social connections above politics- Even though membership comes from political background, the club also has big events on sports, culture, literature and social issues. The result of this election will decide how the priorities of these activities will be in the coming years.

5. Fast election campaign- Candidates have been engaged in supporting personal meetings, dinner meetings and phone calls for the last few weeks. Here, not the election symbol of any party, but individual image and relationships win.

In the corridors of the club, the process of gathering support through ‘Cup tea talks’ and ‘dinner diplomacy’ is going on at this time. Senior members say that the election here is a contest of “relationships and trusts”, where every vote comes out of personal connection. For this reason, both the candidates of the post of Secretary are trying to hold a formal and informal meeting in all places from Parliament Canteens to themselves.

With the results of August 12, it will be decided who will be the face of the Constitution Club in the coming time, which will retain the tradition, or he will make the club’s identity more comprehensive with new experiments.
