Nayab Singh Saini: Stepping out of the shadows

On October 17, Nayab Singh Saini, a non-political family member, was sworn in as Haryana’s Chief Minister for the second term. He led BJP to victory in the State election, focusing on ‘non-Jats’ and OBCs. Mr. Saini, known for his humble and assertive leadership style, quickly made key decisions in his first Cabinet meeting, promising free dialysis services and support for farmers. With a background in BJP and RSS, Mr. Saini’s rise in politics has been meteoric. Now faced with the challenge of fulfilling promises made during the campaign, Mr. Saini is determined to lead Haryana towards progress.
