Debutant Lok Sabha MP Varun Chaudhary of the Congress is one of the most promising lawmakers from Haryana.

HT takes a look at the first-time MP's one-year journey in the House, and his future plans.

Though being a 2019 MLA, I already had legislative experience but as an MP I encountered fresh challenges pertaining to rules and time limitations. It's actually a shift from the state list to the Union and concurrent list.

What was the high point of the year for you personally, or your party in the House?
