Babita Phogat has won multiple medals for the country, most notably gold and silver medals in the Commonwealth Games of the last three editions. Her sister Geeta Phogat too had similar honours for the country, parts of which were depicted in the blockbuster Dangal, which was loosely based on their lives.
Babita Phogat joined the Bharatiya Janata Party in 2019. Recently, she resigned from her position as deputy director in Haryana's Sports and Youth Affairs Department to focus fully on politicians
