At the same time, in Rajasthan, the party has given a big responsibility to Arjun Ram Meghwal, a big face from the Dalit community. Meghwal was first elected as an MP in 2009 from Bikaner seat in Rajasthan. Awarded the Best Parliamentarian Award in 2013. Before joining politics, Meghwal was an IAS officer of Rajasthan cadre. He has won three times in a row in the general elections of 2009, 2014 and 2019.
Due to this habit of cycling, Meghwal has attracted the attention of people on many occasions, be it cycling to Parliament or cycling to the swearing-in ceremony at Rashtrapati Bhavan. However, he was later banned from using the bicycle due to safety reasons.
