Political career In 1989, Dhian Singh Mand achieved a surprising victory by over 200,000 votes in the Firozepur constituency during the Indian general elections. Mand, who was relatively unknown at the time, defeated prominent figures such as Congress leader Jagmeet Singh Brar and Janata Dal leader Devi Lal.
