The Aurangabad Lok Sabha constituency is one of the 40 Lok Sabha (parliamentary) constituencies in Bihar state in eastern India. Between 1952 and 2019, the constituency elected candidates belonging to only Rajput caste to Lok Sabha. From 1989 to 2019, the constituency remained the space for political battle between the families of Satyendra Narayan Singh and Ram Naresh Singh. In 2024, Abhay Kushwaha defeated Sushil Kumar Singh, son of Ram Naresh Singh to become first non-Rajput parliamentarian from the constituency.{{cite web|url=https://www.livehindustan.com/bihar/story-bihar-chittorgarh-aurangabad-lok-sabha-seat-first-time-non-rajput-candidate-wins-rjd-abhay-kushwaha-lit-lalten-10158075.html|title=First non Rajput candidate wins Bihar's Chittorgarh|website=Hindustan|accessdate=10 June 2024}}
