Mystery surrounds the personal life of Indian cricketer Rinku Singh, as conflicting reports emerge about his rumored engagement to Priya Saroj, a Member of Parliament from the Samajwadi Party. While some sources claim the couple is engaged, others insist that the news is premature and that the families are merely in discussions about the marriage.
Reports of Engagement vs. Family Statements
According to India Today, Rinku Singh and Priya Saroj have already been engaged, though the families are yet to make a public announcement. On the other hand, India TV has quoted Priya Saroj’s father, Tufani Saroj, denying the engagement.
“Priya is currently in Thiruvananthapuram for work, and no, her engagement with Rinku Singh has not happened. Talks are ongoing between the families, but the news of engagement is entirely incorrect,” said Tufani Saroj, a three-time Member of Parliament and current MLA from Uttar Pradesh. He further clarified that Rinku’s family had approached his elder son-in-law with a marriage proposal.
Who Is Priya Saroj?
Priya Saroj is one of the youngest Members of Parliament in India, having won the Lok Sabha elections from Machhlishahr at the age of 25. She completed her schooling at the Air Force Golden Jubilee Institute in New Delhi, pursued her undergraduate studies at Delhi University, and earned an LLB degree from Amity University, Noida.
