Sanjeev Balyan, a BJP MP and former Union minister, lost the election for Secretary (Administration) of the Constitution Club of India by approximately 100 votes to Rajiv Pratap Singh Rudy, another BJP leader.
Balyan, contesting for the first time, attributed his defeat to the opposition parties voting along party lines, despite the election not being officially partisan.
He aimed to revitalize the club, encouraging interaction between ruling and opposition MPs.
Balyan's platform focused on restoring the club's former prestige and increasing its usage by parliamentarians..
