History of Adarsh Nagar Assembly Constituency

Ashwani Ahuja, who entered the fray as a candidate of the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP), came a distant fourth with 5640 votes. Whereas former UP CM Mayawati led BSP drew a blank in 2013 assembly polls to Delhi, in the previous assembly elections held in 2008, the party had won two seats. 

In 2015 and 2024, Adarsh Nagar, one of the seventy assembly seats in Delhi, was won by AAP's Pawan Kumar Sharma. 

BJP's Ram Kishan Singhal won in 2013 by defeating his nearest rival Jagdeep Rana of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) by a margin of 9923 votes. Former Congress minister Mangat Ram, who had been representing the constituency since 1998, was relegated to the third position.  

In 1998 assembly polls, which inaugurated the Sheila Dixit government in Delhi, Adarsh Nagar went in favour of Mangat Ram who emerged victorious by defeating the sitting BJP legislator Jai Parkash Yadav by a huge margin of 19518 votes. 

Jai Parkash Yadav was the winner of the Adarsh Nagar seat in the first elections to the Delhi legislative assembly held in 1993. He claimed the seat by defeating Mangat Ram by a razor thin margin of just 40 votes.

Muhammad Shah Rangila

Aurangzeb, the last great Mughal emperor, died in 1707. Muhammad Shah became Mughal emperor in 1719. During the interregnum, Bahadur Shah I , Jahandar Shah, Farrukhsiyar, Rafi-ud-Darajat and Rafi-ud-Daula ascended the Mughal throne. Jahandar Shah was murdered on the orders of Farrukhsiyar who had the support of the two powerful Mughal nobles Sayyid Abdullah and his brother Sayyid Husain Ali at that time. They are famous in history as Sayyid brothers, the King-makers. In 1719, Farrukhsiyar were murdered in utter disregard of a Mughal emperor by Sayyid brothers. Rafi-ud-Darajat died of consumption in a few months. Rafi-ud-Daula was addicted to opium and died in 4 months. Sayyid brothers now chose Raushan Akhtar, a son of Jahan Shah (the fourth son of Bahadur Shah I), to be the emperor. Raushan Akhtar ascended the throne under the title of Muhamamd Shah in September 1719. In the beginning Muhammad Shah was a puppet in the hands of Sayyid brothers who soon began to lose their gri...

Turkan-i-Chahalgani, the Group of Forty

Amir-i-Chahalgani, known variously as Turkan-i-Chahalgani and Chalisa (The Forty), was a group of 40 faithful slaves which came into existence with the task of protecting Shamsuddin Iltutmish , the third Slave Sultan of Delhi Sultanate. The idea to form the group was taken by him when he came to realize that Turkish nobles cannot be trusted and could be a threat to his rule. With the passage of time the group went on to become very influential and powerful. Though Iltutmish succeeded in keeping the group under control, after his rule they became notorious and intrigued against nearly all his successors.  The Forty acquired domination on the affairs of the state so much so that no ruler could defy them. Without their support it was utterly out of questions for the rulers to win the battle for succession. The members of this Turkish nobility used to appropriate all the offices of the state to themselves. Some of the rulers of the Slave dynasty after Iltutmish were murdered by these s...
