}}Dr. Dharambir Agnihotri (born 1946) is a member of the Indian National Congress party. He is a member of the Punjab Legislative Assembly and represents the Tarn Taran Assembly Constituency.[1] Agnihotri is also a doctor at his own hospital, The Agnihotri Hospital which is in a village named Sheron.[1]

Political career

Agnihotri first became a sarpanch (head of a village) of Sheron (where his hospital is) and he was unanimously elected in 1997.

Agnihotri was recruited by Amarinder Singh in 2007 to run as a candidate for the legislative assembly from Naushara Panwan, but lost by a slim margin of 2459 votes against Ranjit Singh Brahampura. In 2012 Dharambir switched constituencies and this time fought the election from the Taran Tarn constituency, again he lost this time by a narrow margin of 4621 votes to Harmeet Singh Sandhu.In 2010 he was made District President of Taran Tarn and he resigned in 2013. In 2014 he was made the general secretary of the Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee.[2]{{Self-published inline|date=October 2018}} In 2017, Agnihotri again ran from Taran Tarn and this time he defeated the incumbent Harmeet Singh Sandhu by a margin of 14,629 votes.[3]

[4][5] This was seen as a very historical win because it was the first time that a candidate from the Congress party won from this constituency in around 40 years. Along with this Dharambir was the first Hindu candidate to ever win an election from this constituency.[6]
