It seems switching careers from sports to politics has become a norm in Haryana as a long list of sportspersons-turned-politicians is actively involved in it.
After making a name for themselves in the sporting realm, figures like Yogeshwar Dutt, Sandeep Singh, the Phogat sisters - Babita and Vinesh - Bajrang Punia are here to conquer the shrewdness of politics.
Congress chose Vinesh as the candidate from Julana, while BJP did not express confidence in Babita or Yogeshwar.
Bajrang has been given the responsibility of Kisan Sangh. The Olympics medallist joined Congress along with Vinesh. Congress has appointed him as the chairman of the All India Kisan Congress. It remains to be seen if his career in the political arena will take off, or, will it meet the same fate as many of his predecessors.
The trend of players joining Haryana politics started from the 1970s with boxer Chaudhary Birender Singh.
