Have a look at the biography of singer Kanhaiya Mittal
As Haryana prepares for Assembly elections on October 5, singer Kanhaiya Mittal, known for the song “Jo Ram ko layein hain,” is apparently planning to join the Congress. Remarkably, Mittal had backed the BJP during the elections in Uttar Pradesh.
According to a video, Kanhaiya Mittal told his friend that he wanted to join the Congress. The musician made it clear that he and the BJP are not at odds, saying that he wants “Sanatan” to be discussed at all parties.
Taking to X, he said in a video post: “It is wrong that the BJP denied me the ticket from Panchkula and that is why I am joining Congress. I hold no grudges against the BJP. I believe that the Sanatana Dharma can be spread from every party and not only from one party.”
Who is Bhajan singer Kanhaiya Mittal, biography, age, family, wife, party and songs list
On September 21, 1990, Kanhiya Mittal was born in Chandigarh, the capital of Punjab and Haryana. Mehak Mittal is the wife of Kanhaiya Mittal. Her native place is Bathinda, Punjab. Tejas Mittal and Shyam Mittal are the couple’s two sons.
Kanhaiya Mittal career
Kanhaiya Mittal is well-known for singing devotional songs. However, his song, “Jo Ram ko laye hain, hum unko layenge,” made him well-known outside of the religious community. Even though Kanhaiya is currently the talk of the town due to his political affiliations, this was not always his intention. Prior to being pulled to the world of devotional singing, he actually had aspirations of becoming a Civil Servant.
He frequently dedicates his bhajans, or devotional songs, to Salasar Balaji and Khatu Shyam. His fan base is not limited to India; he has admirers in other countries as well. Kanhaiya started singing bhajans at the age of seven, when he sang in a jagrata at a temple close to his home.

Kanhiya Mittal’s influence reaches beyond the music industry and into public recognition. He was named the Municipal Corporation of Chandigarh’s Swachh Survekshan 2023 brand ambassador, and he perfectly captures the symbiotic relationship between art and community work.
His career, which has been characterized by recognition, honours, and societal effect, is proof of the transformational potential of music, especially when it is driven by unshakeable devotion and spiritual resonance.
