Brief Biography and Political Journey
Joyel Murmu is a dedicated and deeply grounded political leader who serves as the Member of the Legislative Assembly (MLA) for the Habibpur constituency in Malda, West Bengal. He first stepped into the legislative arena by securing a popular victory in the crucial 2019 by-election as a candidate for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), a seat that opened up when his predecessor was elected to the Lok Sabha. Since then, he has proven to be a highly resilient and trusted voice for the region.
Deeply connected to his agricultural roots, Joyel has consistently championed the causes of local farmers, tribal welfare, and essential rural development. His relatable, down-to-earth approach and constant physical presence among the people have made him a highly accessible public servant. This strong bond with the public was clearly reflected in his monumental victory in the 2026 assembly elections, where the people of Habibpur re-elected him with an overwhelming mandate of over 1.4 lakh votes, securing an impressive winning margin of more than 78,000 votes.
