Haresh Pandya reports: India's star cricketer Cheteshwar Pujara, who is also Election Commission's Brand Ambassador in Gujarat, flew down from Abu Dhabi, where he has been playing for Kings XI Punjab in the ongoing Indian Premier League, to cast his vote in Rajkot.
Accompanied by his wife Puja, he arrived at the city's Sahjanand School and the couple cast their votes around 7.45 am.
"We had decided to reach as early as possible at the polling booth and cast our votes," a smiling Pujara told rediff.com.
"I had decided not to miss polling this time around. Not only because I am the Election Commission's brand ambassador, but also because I really wanted to
experience it. Luckily, there was no scheduled match for my team today, which made it quite easy for me to come to Rajkot."
