'I've got a new inning now': Mohammad Azharuddin on becoming a Telangana minister | India Today

Former Indian cricket captain Mohammad Azharuddin commented on his new political role after being sworn in as a minister in the Telangana government on October 31, 2025. Addressing allegations that his appointment is to appease Muslim voters ahead of the Jubilee Hills by-poll, Azharuddin stated, 'That is not the right attitude for people to think... election is different and the ministry is different.'. The induction, which makes Azharuddin the first Muslim minister in the Revanth Reddy-led cabinet, has drawn criticism from the BJP as a poll code violation. In the interview, Azharuddin, who lost from Jubilee Hills in 2023, likened his new position to a 'new inning' and stated his primary goal is to work for the 'upliftment of the poor people.' He also thanked the Congress high command, including Sonia Gandhi and Mallikarjun Kharge, and Telangana CM Revanth Reddy. #MohammadAzharuddin #Telangana #TelanganaPolitics #itwebvideos #Congress #RevanthReddy #JubileeHills #Azharuddin #NewInning #TelanganaMinister #RDIndiaToday Subscribe to India Today for NEW VIDEOS EVERY DAY and make sure to enable Push Notifications so you'll never miss a new video.
