Cricket and politics are two of the most populistic fields in India. There is often an interlude between these two entities as we often see Cricketers, turning out to be politicians at a later point in their careers.
Coming to the topic now, the discussion is about Indian cricketer, Ravindra Jadeja’s wife Rivaba Jadeja becoming a Cabinet minister in Gujarat. The news was officially communicated a short while back.
Rivaba Jadeja had been serving as Jamnagar North MLA, and she is now accredited with the position of Cabinet ministry by the Gujarat government.
Incidentally, the Gujarat cabinet expansion happened earlier in the day today, and this came as a pleasant surprise to the Jadeja household as Ravindra Jadeja’s wife Rivaba was handed over the cabinet minister position.
She was one of the 26 new members to be inducted into the cabinet and this must come as great news to the Jadeja household as they celebrate the occasion.
