Mohit Mohindra is Punjab Youth Congress chief

Mohit Mohindra was elected as president of the Punjab Youth Congress

His father, a prominent face of the Punjab politics, is also a Cabinet minister, has been a six-time MLA in his over 40 years of public service.

Mohit, who is a former cricketer and an advocate, has a daunting task of carrying forward his father’s five decades old political legacy.

One of the youngest politicians in the polls, he is in fray on a Congress ticket from Patiala Rural, where his father is a sitting MLA. Mohit, 31, faces a stiff competition from incumbent Mayor Sanjiv Bittu, who is contesting on the Punjab Lok Congress ticket, Jaspal Singh Bittu Chatha of SAD and Balbir Singh of AAP.
