Gwalior Lok Sabha constituency, Parliamentary constituency in Gwalior District, India.
Gwalior Lok Sabha constituency is a parliamentary district that covers the entire Gwalior district and parts of Shivpuri district in Madhya Pradesh. It represents one of 29 parliamentary seats in the state and serves as an important electoral region.
The constituency was established in 1952 as part of India's independent electoral system. A significant moment came during the 1984 elections when Madhavrao Scindia defeated the former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee here.
The constituency comprises eight assembly segments with different population groups, and two of these are reserved specifically for scheduled caste candidates. This division shapes how different communities in the region are represented politically.
The constituency spans a large geographic area with millions of registered voters distributed across multiple districts and assembly segments. For those interested in local politics, each segment offers different community perspectives and regional characteristics.
The 2024 elections saw a closely fought three-way contest that ended with the winning candidate securing just above 49 percent of votes. This tight margin reflects how competitive the region has become politically.
