Pradeep Kumar Jain 'Aditya' , new member of parliament elected from Jhansi, is now joined the union cabinet as a Minister of State.
About Pradeep Kumar Jain
Elected from Jhansi constituency in Bundelkhand, 47-year-old Jain is not only a first-timer in the Union ministry but a first-time MP as well. Before becoming a MP, he was the sitting MLA from Jhansi Assembly constituency. Sources in the UPCC said Jain is regarded as a diligent worker, who has worked hard to revive the party in the Bundelkhand region. Since Bundelkhand is said to be close to Rahul Gandhi’s heart and Jain is regarded as one of the younger lot, he fits in Gandhi’s vision for 2012
Assembly election in Uttar Pradesh. “His name comes as a surprise. But the fact that he comes from Bundelkhand explains it all. It will certainly give a boost to the region. He is regarded as a grassroot-level worker in the party,” said a senior UPCC leader.
