After the marriage with Ravi Rana, she stood unsuccessfully as a Nationalist Congress Party candidate in the 2014 Lok Sabha Election.[citation needed]

She was elected as an MP from Amravati,[8] Maharashtra constituency in Lok Sabha Elections 2019 as an Independent candidate, with support of Indian National Congress and Nationalist Congress Party defeating Anandrao Adsul of Shiv Sena. In this election as an independent candidate, she has spent Rs.65 Lakh while the previous two times MP, Adsul has spent Rs.49 Lakh for a democratic process.[9]

On 8 June 2021, the High Court of Bombay fined her Rs. 2 lakh, for submitting a fake Mochi caste certificate.[14] The court cancelled her caste certificate, however, it remained silent on the validity of her position as an elected representative from a Lok Sabha seat reserved for people belonging to Scheduled Caste category.[15][16] In April 2022, Kaur and her husband Ravi were arrested by Mumbai police following their insistence to recite Hanuman Chalisa in front of Matoshree the residence of then Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray, with charges of sedition, promoting enmity and assaulting a public servant to prevent discharge of duty.[17].
