Initially, it was at his panchayat level and now it is for lok Sabha (lS) elections. This intermediate passed youth is one of his kind nominee from Ranchi constituency.
“Noticing my charitable work list, 3.5 years back Jharkhand Party gave me the opportunity to join their party. I had always wanted to make a career in politics and accepting this proposal was the first step to my aspiration. It is my fortune that this party had nominated me from the state capital. I firmly believe winning the hearts of people is important than winning an election. Work matters not popularity,” Mardi said on Tuesday.
Significantly, this youth who has no bank account or property is known among his natives for his prompt attitude of helping people in difficult situations. Recently, a man of his village was burned. Mardi immediately took him to Tata Memorial Hospital (TMH) and managed the financial assistance from the company where this person is employed.

Speaking on these instances, he said, “I do not have money to shower on people but have the zeal to help my people with physical strength.”
“Contesting for lok Sabha elections is a constitutional right. I am using it for the public,” he added. Notably, Jharkhand Party is a 14 year old political party of this state and is said to dedicate itself to the locals.
