The former player from India has a points schedule in his second inning in life. “I have played cricket for 20 years and have commented / coached for another 20 years. 40 years have passed with the game that I love. Now I see different challenges in life. Chennai, my city, and Tamil Nadu, my state are my top priorities and I want to work for the development of my city and the state, ”said Siva, as he is fondly known.
As a cricketer, Siva was known to be a young prodigy, but he could only play nine trials and 16 ODI. He knows that he disappointed his fans by not realizing his full potential in cricket. “I know I couldn’t do justice to my talent and expectations of my fans as a cricketer. I will fulfill that commitment in politics. I want to do the best I can for the party, the state, the country and the people. I will not disappoint you in my second entry. ”
He has not sought guarantees or positions for himself from the central leaders of the BJP. He simply followed his ideology and conviction. “I have not spoken to anyone in Delhi and no central leader has spoken to me. It is a personal decision. I do not long for any position here. I will work for the party in any capacity. I want to serve the people. I have a few things in mind, like Chennai port can be well connected like for example Vizag. It is very important for business. The roads here are not good and there are also electricity problems. These are the topics closest to my heart. I want Chennai to be well connected, ”Siva explained his vision.
Sivaramakrishnan is not the only cricketer to have joined politics and elected the BJP. The name Gautam Gambhir immediately springs to mind. He is a deputy from Delhi.
