She actively participated in the Madhesi Movement in 2006–2007, and because of her bravery and dedication, she was given the opportunity to serve as a proportional representative from the Sarlahi district.
The Commission for the Investigation of Abuse of Authority (CIAA) of Nepal investigated cases involving the sale of red (diplomatic) passports by some Madhesi Jana Adhikar Forum members. Mikrani was implicated in this matter, along with Shiva Pujan Rai Yadav and Rambha Devi.
