London-Educated 27-Year-Old Is BJP's Bet In Muslim-Majority Haryana Seat

Twenty-seven-year-old Nauksham Chaudhary - the BJP candidate for the Punhana seat in Haryana's Mewat district - has the kind of profile that is unheard of when it comes to election contenders in India. A History graduate from Delhi University's prestigious Miranda House college, she has a Master's Degree in Luxury Brand Management from Italy and in Communications from London. She faces the challenge of winning the seat for the BJP in the Muslim-dominated Mewat district where the party has a poor track record.
