Rishabh Pant’s 1 AM post asking Uttarakhand CM for land left social media in splits. Now, Dhami responds
India wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant's late-night appeal to Uttarakhand CM Pushkar Singh Dhami for help acquiring land in his home state set social media abuzz — and now, the Chief Minister himself has responded, praising Pant and assuring him of official assistance.
Rishabh Pant's late-night social media post to Uttarakhand's Chief Minister, Pushkar Singh Dhami, asking for assistance in securing land in the hill state quickly became a viral sensation on social media. The India wicketkeeper-batter, a native of Uttarakhand, had been struggling for years to find suitable land in the state to shift his base away from Delhi.
Pant's post, which was sent at 12:46 AM, was marked by several typos and grammatical slips, adding to its unconventional nature. Dhami responded to Pant's post directly on X (formerly Twitter), praising the cricketer's contribution to the sport and the state's image, and confirming that instructions were being sent to the relevant officials to extend cooperation within the applicable rules.
The response to Dhami's statement quickly turned the unusual post into a positive and reassuring exchange, adding another layer to the already-viral story.
