The constituency has seen members of the Yadav family winning continuously for 28 years with Mulayam Singh Yadav holding office for five terms- in 1996, 2004, 2009, 2014, and 2019. However, following his demise in 2022, his daughter-in-law and former MP from Kannauj, Dimple Yadav, riding on the sympathy sentiment, swept the bye-elections with a margin of 2.8 lakh votes.
