NEW DELHI, SEPT 9
Parimal Nathwani, a consecutive third time Rajya Sabha MP took oath on Wednesday. Vice- President and Chairman of Rajya Sabha Venkaiah Naidu administered the oath in his chamber. Nathwani, who will be representing Andhra Pradesh this time, could not take the oath with other newly elected members as he was indisposed and could not travel to Delhi, a release said.
Nathwani, who represented Jharkhand in 2008 and 2014, got elected a third time for Rajya Sabha as YSR Congress candidate on June 19, 2020.
“I thank our dynamic and very popular young leader Shri YS Jagan Mohan Reddy, Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, and YSR Congress Party, for giving me the opportunity to serve the people of this state.
It is over a year since he became CM of AP and he has fulfilled nearly 90% of the promises made by him and he will do a lot more for the overall development of the state in the remaining 4 years of his term.
Our CM has focused on the ‘Navaratnalu’ or the 9 welfare schemes that he had promised to implement, and a lot has been achieved in each of these schemes,” said Nathwani after his swearing-in at Delhi.
He further added, “Just last week Andhra Pradesh was ranked No. 1 state in ease of doing business rankings released by GoI’s Department for Promotion of Industry & Internal Trade.
It was a great honour to take oath as #RajyaSabha member in the presence of Hon’ble Vice President Shri @MVenkaiahNaidu, who administered the oath. I also thank Shri @ysjagan for giving me this opportunity. I look forward to serving the people of #AndhraPradesh. @YSRCParty pic.twitter.com/BX0nBgFmpa
