**New Delhi, Jan [Date]** – Reports of an engagement between Indian cricketer Rinku Singh and Samajwadi Party MP Priya Saroj have been swiftly denied by Saroj’s father, Tufani Saroj. Multiple media outlets reported the engagement earlier today, prompting online congratulations for the cricketer.
However, Tufani Saroj, a three-time MP and current MLA, stated categorically that the news is false. While acknowledging ongoing discussions between the two families, he confirmed that no engagement has taken place. Ms. Saroj is currently in Thiruvananthapuram on work.
The clarification comes as Rinku Singh is preparing for India’s upcoming five-match T20I series against England, beginning January 22nd in Kolkata. He is included in the 15-member squad announced last week, which also features the return of Mohammed Shami. The series will conclude on February 2nd in Mumbai.
The news of a potential union between the cricketer and the politician had garnered significant attention, but the family’s statement brings a definitive end to the speculation, at least for now.
