Hema Malini visits wheat field in Mathura, interacts with farmers | See Pics
Lok Sabha elections 2024: BJP MP and candidate for Mathura constituency Hema Malini visited a wheat field in Uttar Pradesh, the photos of which she has shared on her X account.
In the images, Hema Malini is seen engaging with women working in the field, lending them a hand and posing for pictures. She expressed her enjoyment at being in the farm setting. "Today I went into the farms to interact with the farmers who I have been meeting regularly these 10 years. They loved having me in their midst and insisted I pose with them, which I did," she wrote.
Hema Malini is contesting for the Mathura Lok Sabha seat as the BJP's candidate for the third time. Mathura has been a stronghold for the BJP in the past, winning the seat four times from 1991 to 1999. However, in 2004, the constituency was won by the Congress, and in 2009, the RLD's Jayant Chaudhary was elected as MP.

Uttar Pradesh, which sends 80 MPs to Parliament, will vote across all seven phases in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections 2024. The first two phases are scheduled for April 19 and 26. Phases three and four will take place on May 7 and 13, with the final three phases on May 20, 23, and June 1. Mathura will be part of the second phase of elections, with polling taking place on April 26.
In 2014, the BJP fielded Hema Malini, who emerged victorious. She retained the seat in the 2019 elections with support from her husband, actor Dharmendra, who campaigned on her behalf and attracted large crowds. The MP's success has been attributed to the public welfare schemes of the double-engine government.
