The senator, who was elected in 2018 to a reserved seat on a PPP ticket, thanked social gathering chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari for giving her a possibility to turn out to be a member of the higher home of Parliament.

Kohli grew to become the primary Hindu Dalit girl to be elected to the Senate in 2018. Previous to changing into a senator, she was an activist in a village in Nagarparkar.
