Trailblazing Legacy: Ram Mohan Naidu Kinjarapu Becomes Youngest-Ever Central Cabinet Minister

Ram Mohan Naidu Kinjarapu, the youngest-ever Central Cabinet Minister, was sworn in on Sunday at the age of 37. An MP from Srikakulam, his ascent reflects a blend of party loyalty and steadfast commitment to public service.

Kinjarapu's political journey was catalyzed by the tragic demise of his father, K Yerran Naidu, a former union minister, in 2012. Since then, he has won the Lok Sabha seat from Srikakulam three times, with his latest victory in 2024 marked by a resounding majority over YSRCP's P Tilak.

Educated at Delhi Public School, Purdue University, and Long Island, Kinjarapu was initially inclined toward a career in Singapore before politics beckoned. Honored with the Sansad Ratna Award in 2020, his other passions include photography and sports such as basketball and cricket.
