'''Garima Singh''' is an Indian politician and a member of the 17th [[Legislative Assembly of Uttar Pradesh]] in India. Singh represents the [[Amethi]] [[Vidhan Sabha]] constituency, which is in [[Sultanpur district]], [[Uttar Pradesh]].

==Personal life==
Garima Singh is legally married to another politician, [[Sanjaya Sinh]] (also known as [[Sanjaya Sinh|Sanjay Singh]]). Sanjaya claims to be married with [[Ameeta Singh]], the widow of [[Syed Modi]], but Garima successfully contested the legitimacy of that marriage. Both the High Court and [[Supreme Court of India]] have declared the alleged mutual divorce between herself and Sanjay in 1995, which preceded his marriage to Ameeta, to be null and void. Sanjay has accepted the court rulings but maintains that Ameeta is his only legally wedded wife. Garima and Sanjay have a son and two daughters.<ref>[http://www.outlookindia.com/article/Battle-Of-Amethi-II/291562 Battle Of Amethi, II], Outlook India.</ref>

Sanjay Singh was adopted by the king of Amethi, Rananjay Singh, as his heir prior to the abolition of all royal privileges in India and as such he inherited the former royal estates. In 1989, he had removed his wife Garima from the palace after beginning a relationship with Ameeta, who had recently been widowed. In 2014, Garima and her children took up residence at another palace in Amethi, called [[Bhupati Bhawan]], and refused to move. Local people gathered to support her, claiming that she, rather than Ameeta, was the real queen.<ref name="telegraph">{{cite news |title='Queens' & knight in Amethi battle |first=Piyush |last=Srivastava |url=https://www.telegraphindia.com/1170212/jsp/nation/story_135347.jsp |work=The Telegraph |date=12 February 2017 |accessdate=2018-02-07}}</ref> Amidst claim and counter-claim, Anant Vikram Singh, who is Sanjay's son, has had the support of his mother in alleging that Ameeta has been undermining his future inheritance of various formerly royal properties. Sanjay denies the allegations, and also denies claims that the local people are not being looked after by the family in the manner that is customary. Garima claims that she entered the palace in support of her children, who all blame Ameeta for the troubles that have arisen since Sanjay and Ameeta began their relationship.<ref name="toi2014">{{cite news|url=http://articles.economictimes.indiatimes.com/2014-09-20/news/54135405_1_syed-modi-amethi-palace-coup|title=Royal feud: 50-year-old Bhupati Bhavan Palace in Amethi locked in inheritance battle|first=Manmohan |last=Rai |date=20 September 2014 |work=The Times of India |accessdate=2018-02-07}}</ref>

==Political career==
Singh contested the [[2017 Uttar Pradesh Legislative Assembly election|2017 Uttar Pradesh Assembly election]] as a [[Bharatiya Janata Party]] candidate and defeated her nearest competitor, Gayatri Prasad from the [[Samajwadi Party]], with a margin of 5,065 votes.<ref>{{cite web | url= http://eciresults.nic.in/ConstituencywiseS24186.htm?ac=186| title=ELECTION COMMISSION OF INDIA GENERAL ELECTION TO VIDHAN SABHA TRENDS & RESULT 2017 | publisher=eciresults.nic.in | accessdate=2017-06-15}}</ref> Another contestant in that election was Ameeta Singh, who stood as an [[Indian National Congress]] candidate. The BJP hoped to win the seat by exploiting local sympathy for Garima, who is a relative of [[V. P. Singh]], a former [[Prime Minister of India]].<ref>{{cite news |work=The Hindu |title=Star wars in Amethi: Amita versus Garima |date=17 February 2017 |first=Vikas |last=Pathak |url=http://www.thehindu.com/elections/uttar-pradesh-2017/Star-wars-in-Amethi-Amita-versus-Garima/article17315307.ece |accessdate=2018-02-07}}</ref> Both women named Sanjay Singh as their spouse in their election affidavits.
