Diksha Singh has procured a form to contest the elections for a zila panchayat member from Ward No.26 (Baksha).

“I have been participating in competitions and political debates since college days and have been coming to the village from time to time. On coming here, I saw that even today, Jaunpur district is far away from development. So, I have come for the Panchayat elections, thinking of some change,” she said.
