'''Mahan Dal''' ([[translation]]: ''Great Party'') is an Indian political party founded by Keshav Dev Maurya based in [[Uttar Pradesh]], India.

==Politics==
On 11 March 2014 Maurya in a joint press conference with [[Rashtriya Parivartan Dal]]'s chief DP Yadav said "Our party does not have any ideology... Our main aim is to grab power for the welfare of our society... Every one is doing so but I say it openly.".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.business-standard.com/article/pti-stories/our-main-aim-is-to-grab-power-for-welfare-of-society-mahan-dal-114031201064_1.html |title=Our main aim is to grab power for welfare of society:Mahan Dal |publisher=Business Standard |date=2014-03-12 |access-date=2014-04-25}}</ref> Maurya added that his party did not "have the position to contest in the Lok Sabha polls alone" and its "alliance with RPD will continue in future too".{{citation needed|date=September 2020}}

==Elections==
===2014 Loksabha election===
Mahan Dal had joined the [[Indian National Congress]]-led [[United Progressive Alliance]]. In western Uttar Pradesh, Mahan Dal contested on three [[Lok Sabha]] constituencies, [[Badaun]], [[Nagina]] and [[Etah]]<ref>{{cite web|url=http://indianexpress.com/article/cities/lucknow/western-up-cong-gives-eight-seats-to-rld-3-to-mahan-dal/ |title=Western UP: Cong gives eight seats to RLD, 3 to Mahan Dal |publisher=The Indian Express |date=2014-03-09 |access-date=2014-04-25}}</ref> while [[Rashtriya Lok Dal]] contested in eight constituencies as per an arrangement with INC.<ref>{{cite web|last=Seth |first=Maulshree |url=http://indianexpress.com/article/india/politics/cong-to-leave-8-seats-for-rld-3-for-mahan-dal-in-western-up/ |title=Cong to leave 8 seats for RLD, 3 for Mahan Dal in western UP |publisher=The Indian Express |date=2014-03-09 |access-date=2014-04-25}}</ref>

Mahan Dal claimed that the [[Other Backward Class|OBC]] voters of western [[Uttar Pradesh|UP]] specially Shakyas, Mauryas and Kushwahas would support them in the election<ref>{{cite web|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/noida/Mahan-Dal-enters-fray-with-Congress/articleshow/31911554.cms |title=Mahan Dal enters fray with Congress – The Times of India |publisher=Timesofindia.indiatimes.com |date=2014-03-13 |access-date=2014-04-25}}</ref> but Mahan Dal candidates lost on all three allocated seats

===2019 general election===
The Congress leader said the party will follow the type of politics in which everyone is represented equally.
