Rishabh Pant Asks Uttarakhand CM for Land to Build House Rishabh Pant, the Indian cricketer and wicketkeeper, made a surprising tweet late at night, addressing Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami. In the post, Pant requested the CM to provide land for constructing a house in his home state. The tweet, which has since gone viral on social media, highlighted his struggle to acquire land for a personal residence despite being a prominent figure in Indian cricket. Pant’s tweet, posted at 12:46 AM on Saturday, read: “Hello Sir. For three years, I have been unable to secure land in my home state to build a house. The government’s allocated land has not materialized. I have been trying for a long time to shift my base from Delhi to Uttarakhand. The government should assist me in acquiring land.” He further stated that if the government gifted him land, it would be a significant gesture. However, he also mentioned his willingness to purchase land at the government’s determined price to build his house in Uttarakhand. The tweet sparked widespread reactions on social media, with fans and critics debating its authenticity. Some questioned whether Pant had genuinely posted the message or if his X account had been hacked. Others expressed sympathy for his situation, noting the challenges faced by athletes in securing property in their home states. Pant’s request comes amid his recent career developments. In June 2026, he was traded from Lucknow Super Giants to Delhi Capitals for a reported sum of ₹15 crore ahead of the IPL-2027 auction. This move has drawn attention to his career trajectory and financial considerations. The incident also raises questions about the support provided to athletes by state governments.#lucknow_super_giants #delhi_capitals #rishabh_pant #pushkar_singh_dhami #uttarakhand_cm
