Introduction

From a village clinic to the Lok Sabha.

Born in 1953 in the village of Boparai Kalan, Ludhiana district, Dr Amar Malkiat Singh trained in medicine at Amritsar Medical College and served the people of Samrala as a government physician.

Selected into the Indian Administrative Service in the 1981 batch, he went on to serve as Principal Secretary in the Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister's office for seven years, Joint Secretary to the Government of India, and finally as Chairman and Managing Director of the Food Corporation of India — the country's backbone of food security.

He has represented Fatehgarh Sahib in the Lok Sabha since 2019 and was re-elected in 2024. Today he holds a public darbar in the constituency most weeks, and the door remains open.

What he works on

Four fronts. One constituency. One country.

  1. 01Agriculture

    A legal right to MSP.

    Formally petitioned the Union Agriculture Minister to legislate a statutory Minimum Support Price for wheat and paddy — the cornerstone of Punjab's farm economy.

  2. 02Infrastructure

    Halwara Airport & the rail corridor.

    Pushed in Parliament for the operationalisation of Halwara Airport and improved rail connectivity through Fatehgarh Sahib — the lifeline of Khanna's industrial belt.

  3. 03Welfare

    MGNREGA and the right to work.

    As a senior secretariat figure during the 2005 scheme's formulation, he helped shape India's largest rural employment guarantee — and continues to defend its expansion in the House.

  4. 04Punjab

    The fight against narcotics.

    Repeatedly raised the question of drug abuse in Punjab on the floor of the Lok Sabha, pressing for federal coordination with state enforcement.

Fatehgarh Sahib

Nine assemblies. One sacred heart.

The Fatehgarh Sahib parliamentary constituency covers nine assembly segments across the industrial and agrarian belt of central Punjab — Bassi Pathana, Fatehgarh Sahib, Amloh, Khanna, Samrala, Sahnewal, Payal, Raikot and Amargarh.

At its heart lies Fatehgarh Sahib town, one of Sikhism's most sacred sites — where the younger Sahibzadas of Guru Gobind Singh Ji were martyred in 1704. Each December, the Shaheedi Jor Mela draws lakhs of pilgrims.
