Aam Aadmi Party's Manwinder Giaspura has won from the Payal seat in Ludhiana district in the Punjab Assembly elections.
He won by a margin of over 30,000 votes.
Giaspura has an interesting backstory.
About 11 years ago, Giaspura, then in his mid 30s, was working as a textile engineer at a multinational corporation in Gurgaon, Haryana. By coincidence, Giaspura is said to have met a delivery boy who told him about a "deserted village of Sardars" in Rewari district.
Giaspura went with the delivery boy to the village, near the Pataudi-Rewari road and discovered the Hondh cluster and the main Chhillar village.
