In the late 1980s, when V P Singh became the PM, he convinced Santosh Bhartiya to join politics and invest his extraordinary understanding of India’s socio-political scenario to work from within the system. Santosh Bhartiya got elected to the 9th Lok Sabha in 1989 from the Farrukhabad Constituency of Uttar Pradesh and became the Member of Parliament by defeating Salman Khursheed of Congress (I) and Dayaram Shakya from BJP.
Despite being in the system, the journalist in Bhartiya continued to be fierce and unwavering. He maintained his journalistic accountability by criticizing his own government in favor of people, relentlessly bridging the gap between the people and the government. This resulted in many positive outcomes. While he was a Member of Parliament, he continued writing for the publications like Illustrated Weekly, Dharmyug, Current, and many more.
Santosh Bhartiya played his inning in the government with disarming honesty, non-partisan and pro-people approach which was revered equally by his supporters and opponents. Despite his sharp reports, he was closely associated with Prime Ministers like ChandraShekhar, V P Singh, I K Gujral, H D Deve Gowda, Atal Bihari Vajpayee, Rajiv Gandhi and Manmohan Singh. Santosh Bhartiya’s words were taken seriously by all these political giants.
In the 9th Lok Sabha he proposed the BILL in the parliament for showing the activities and SESSIONS OF THE PARLIAMENT LIVE ON TELEVISION. He was opposed by the other members then. His conviction and a pro-common man attitude compelled the later government and the bill was accepted unanimously in the 10th Lok Sabha.
In his 30s he was amongst the most popular and influential member of parliament who was loved by even the members of opposition party. He is responsible for supporting many genuine industrialist in politics. Kamal Morarka was one of them.
