As Sachin Tendulkar is about to take oath as Rajya Sabha member, Mahendra Singh Dhoni hopes India’s batting maestro will be as successful in the Parliament as he was on the cricket field.
"I would like to wish him all the best. He has been contributing to cricket. He has done well in every field. This (Rajya Sabha) is a new avenue for him and I am sure he will do well and contribute there too,” Dhoni, who is also the honorary Lieutenant Colonel of army, said.
Meanwhile, Dhoni visited the Kaman post, the last Indian army post on the Line of Control (LoC) in the Uri sector of North Kashmir. “Soon after his arrival at the Srinagar airport, he was transported by a military helicopter to the forward border outpost of Kaman at Uri, where he interacted with the troops,” said Lieutenant Colonel JS Brar, defence spokesperson at Srinagar.
On his return to Baramulla from Uri, Dhoni appreciated Kashmir’s bewitching beauty. A defence spokesman said that Dhoni called the place a heaven and the crown of India.
