Early life and background

Bansuri Swaraj was born on 3 January 1984 and raised in New Delhi. She is the only child of Swaraj Kaushal, a lawyer who has served as Governor of Mizoram, and Sushma Swaraj, the late senior politician. Named after the flute — reflecting her mother's devotion to Lord Krishna — Bansuri grew up in a family with a strong public-service and legal background.

She pursued higher education in England, attending Oxford University and later completing professional legal training at Inner Temple, London, where she qualified as a barrister at law.

Career

Bansuri has practised law since 2007, appearing before the Delhi High Court and the Supreme Court of India. Her legal work spans civil, criminal, commercial, tax, and constitutional matters. She has represented multinational corporations, corporate entities, and individual clients, and has been affiliated with Legasis Partners in a consulting capacity.

In recognition of her contributions, she was honoured in 2012 by SIES – Rise With Education. Her legal profile has brought her into contact with leading figures; in 2013 she met American politician Hillary Clinton, and in 2014 Lalit Modi publicly acknowledged her among lawyers who assisted him in a legal matter.

Bansuri has also been involved in matters of national interest. In 2019 she fulfilled a wish of her mother by engaging senior counsel in a high-profile international case, symbolically paying a token fee of Re 1 to Harish Salve for his appearance at the International Court of Justice in the Kulbhushan Jadhav matter.

Political life

After years in the legal profession, Bansuri entered active politics in March 2023 when she was appointed co-convener of the legal cell of the Delhi unit of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). She described the role as an opportunity to serve the party more actively in a legal capacity.

In the 2024 general election she contested the New Delhi Lok Sabha seat as a BJP candidate and won, defeating her nearest rival by a margin of 78,370 votes.

Public profile

Bansuri has maintained a public profile shaped by both her legal work and her family background. She has practised at the highest levels of the Indian judiciary and has been visible at public events and functions. In 2015 she experienced a health setback when she suffered a mild stroke and was treated at AIIMS, New Delhi.

Personal life

Bansuri is unmarried and lives in New Delhi. She is a Hindu and comes from a Brahmin family. Her hobbies include travelling and painting; she is a devotee of Lord Krishna. She favors foods such as cake, chocolate, and candy, and lists the flute as a favourite musical instrument. Her listed height is approximately 5 feet 5 inches (165 cm), with black hair and black eyes.

Latest updates
