Karuna Shukla (born 1 August 1950) was a member of the 14th Lok Sabha of India. She represented the Janjgir constituency of Chhattisgarh and was a member of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) political party. She lost the 2009 elections from Korba to Charan Das Mahant of the Indian National Congress.
She resigned from the BJP on 25 October 2013 citing that the party was "allegedly under the grip of power politics". [1] [2]

After having ended her 32-year-long association with BJP, on February 27, 2014, she joined Indian National Congress and will contest 2014 Loksabha election from Bilaspur constituency in Chhattisgarh.[3]
