Sanjeev Arora Sworn In as Punjab Cabinet Minister After Winning Ludhiana By-Election Latest News: Sanjeev Arora Sworn In as Punjab Cabinet Minister Latest News Today: In a significant political development, newly elected MLA Sanjeev Arora, who recently secured victory in the Ludhiana By-Elections 2025, was sworn in as a Cabinet Minister in the Punjab government today.
The oath-taking ceremony was held at the Punjab Raj Bhavan in Chandigarh, where Governor Gulab Chand Kataria administered the oath of office to Arora in the presence of Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann and several senior cabinet members and legislators.
Sanjeev Arora, a prominent entrepreneur-turned-politician, contested the Ludhiana bypoll as a candidate from the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and registered a resounding victory, further consolidating the party’s influence in the industrial hub of Punjab. His induction into the cabinet is seen as part of Chief Minister Mann’s ongoing strategy to infuse fresh faces into governance and strengthen the party’s hold on key urban constituencies.
Although the portfolios assigned to Arora have yet to be officially announced, sources suggest he may be entrusted with responsibilities related to industry and commerce, given his professional background and Ludhiana’s prominence as a business and manufacturing centre.
With Arora’s entry into the cabinet, political observers believe the Mann-led government is preparing to rejuvenate its image and focus on development ahead of the 2027 state assembly elections.
The Ludhiana by-election was necessitated following the resignation of the sitting MLA earlier this year. Arora’s victory was widely seen as a litmus test for the ruling party’s popularity amid ongoing political debates in the state.
The newly appointed minister is expected to assume charge of his office later this week.
