Ex-Indian cricketer Ambati Rayudu transitions from the cricket field to politics, officially joining Andhra Pradesh's ruling party, YSRCP, in Vijayawada. Accompanied by Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy, Rayudu's political entry marks a significant move after retiring from cricket in 2023. The 37-year-old, who toured his native Guntur district to understand grassroots issues, had announced his political foray in June. Praising CM Jagan earlier, Rayudu expressed intent to serve the people and formulate a concrete action plan. Having played 55 ODIs with 1694 runs, Rayudu's political journey begins with YSRCP.
