Political career

Mr. Narendra Singh Yadav's political journey is marked by his remarkable contributions and leadership. He has been elected as a Member of the Legislative Assembly (MLA) six times and has held the position of a cabinet minister in the government led by Mulayam Singh Yadav , and was Minister of Home guard, Technical and Higher Education during Akhilesh Yadav government, making significant policy and administrative contributions.

Narendra Singh Yadav's political career began in 1985 when he won the Uttar Pradesh Assembly Elections as a candidate from the Indian National Congress, defeating the opposition candidate by an extraordinary margin of 61,950 votes. He garnered 71,267 votes, while his closest rival, Kunwar Amarjeet Singh, secured only 9,317 votes.

In 1989, Mr. Yadav faced a closely contested election, narrowly losing to a candidate from the Janta Dal Party, Mr. Suresh Chander Singh Yadav, by a margin of 404 votes. Following the formation of the Samajwadi Party and his close association with Mulayam Singh Yadav, Narendra Singh Yadav joined the party. He went on to be elected as an MLA in 1991, 1996, 1997, 2002, and 2012, representing the Mohammadabad constituency initially and later becoming the first MLA from the Amritpur Assembly constituency.

Notably, in 2014, Mr. Yadav was relieved of his ministerial position in the Uttar Pradesh Government due to his son, Sachin Singh Yadav, contesting as an independent candidate in the Farrukhabad Lok Sabha Constituency, challenging the Samajwadi Party candidate.

As of the most recent developments, Narendra Singh Yadav is currently affiliated with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), signifying a significant political transition in his career.
