During her tenure as ward councillor, she turned the ward no.88 into the greenest ward of the city.

On 23 May, she was elected to the Lok Sabha after defeating Chandra Kumar Bose of the Bharatiya Janata Party, her nearest rival by a margin of approximately 155,192 votes. She was polled 573,119 votes compared to Bose's 417,927.
