Chander Parkash Kathuria Biography

Chander Parkash Kathuria is an Indian businessman, social worker and politician from Karnal, Haryana. Active in state and local politics since the mid-1990

Early life and background

Chander Parkash Kathuria was born on 19 December 1969 in Shekhpura Suhana, a small Punjabi family village in Karnal, Haryana. Raised in a farming household, his father worked as a farmer. Kathuria left formal schooling after reaching BA second year. In his early working life he did manual labour and trained himself as a mason; within a short time he advanced to supervision and then became a small-time contractor.

Career

Kathuria’s political activity dates to 1995, when he entered public life with the Haryana Vikas Party. He was appointed Karnal Youth President early in that period, and later served a four-year term as District General Secretary. Between 1998 and 2004 he held roles that included district-level responsibilities and, from 2002 to 2004, State General Secretary and core group member within the same party.

When the Haryana Vikas Party faced a merger decision, Kathuria chose not to join the Indian National Congress. Influenced by the ideology of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh and meeting BJP leaders, he switched allegiance in 2004 and joined the Bharatiya Janata Party alongside other leaders and workers.

Within the BJP and broader public institutions, Kathuria has held a range of party and administrative positions. His record includes service as a State Executive Member, District President, State Vice President of a business association, State Minister-level roles, state secretary, and district in-charge for multiple districts. He was the party’s candidate for the Karnal assembly seat in the 2009 elections; although he did not win that contest, he continued to occupy significant party and organisational roles, including serving as election in-charge for Karnal during the 2014 Lok Sabha elections.

In December 2016 Kathuria was appointed chairman of Haryana Sugarfed. During his tenure he worked on financial and operational issues affecting sugar mills in the state; in the first year after his appointment the organisation reported a substantial reduction in losses. He also laid a foundation stone for a new sugar mill to address long-standing demands from farmers in the Panipat and Karnal regions.

Social work and public causes

Alongside his political and business activities, Kathuria is identified with social service initiatives. His work has included efforts to expand educational access for needy and orphaned children, support for marriages of girls from economically disadvantaged families, and caring for abandoned cattle by arranging shelter in gaushalas. He has supported infrastructure and safety causes at the local level, including leading public demonstrations to accelerate construction projects he regarded as important to public safety.

Public profile

Kathuria is based in Karnal and retains a public presence in Haryana politics and civic life. His personal appearance is described as roughly 5 feet 10 inches tall, with black eyes and black-and-grey hair. He practices Hinduism and lists social work and cow seva among his interests.

Latest updates

As of the details provided, Kathuria remained an active figure in state-level BJP structures and in organisations connected to the sugar industry following his 2016 chairmanship appointment. Over his political career he has held repeated responsibilities within party executive bodies and district-level leadership posts, and has continued to engage in local development and social welfare projects.
