Naina Jadeja Biography

Naina Jadeja is an Indian politician from Jamnagar, Gujarat, known for her role in local Congress politics and for being the elder sister of cricketer Ravı

Early life and background

Naina Jadeja, whose full name appears as Nayanaba A Jadeja, hails from Navagam Ghed in the Jamnagar district of Gujarat. Born and raised in Jamnagar, she comes from a family where public service and community work figured prominently: her mother worked as a nurse and her father later became involved in local politics. Naina herself trained and worked as a nurse in a local hospital before moving into political work.

Career

Naina entered frontline politics as a member of the Indian National Congress. She joined the party in 2018 and was appointed District Women’s Congress President for Jamnagar, taking on responsibilities as a local women’s leader and party worker. Her political activity has included participation in protests and public events focused on women’s empowerment and community issues in the Jamnagar area.

In November 2022 Naina received a party ticket from the Indian National Congress to contest the Gujarat assembly elections from the Jamnagar constituency. That election cycle drew attention because another candidate from her extended family circle, Rivaba Jadeja — the wife of her brother, Ravindra Jadeja — was contesting the same seat for a different party.

Before and alongside her political work, Naina is reported to have taken an active caretaking role within her family. After the death of her mother she left her nursing job and assumed responsibility for household matters and for supporting her younger brother Ravindra during his early cricketing career. Media accounts describe her as having provided emotional and financial support to him during that period.

Public profile

Naina is known publicly both for her political role in Jamnagar and for her family connection to international cricketer Ravindra Jadeja. She has been a visible presence in regional media, appearing as a panelist on Gujarati news channels and speaking at political rallies and media events. Physical details reported about her include a height of approximately 165 cm and black hair and eyes.

Controversies and public incidents

In 2016 Naina was involved in a dispute with an Ahmedabad-based event management company after her family cancelled the company’s services for a family wedding and sought a refund of an advance payment. She filed a complaint with local police alleging the company did not return the advance and that there had been threatening behaviour by the company owner. This incident received coverage in regional press at the time.

Family and personal life

Naina comes from a family rooted in Jamnagar. Her father is named Anirudh Singh Jadeja and her mother Lata Jadeja worked as a nurse. She has at least two siblings: a younger brother, Ravindra Jadeja, the noted cricketer, and a sister named Padmini Jadeja. Public sources list her marital status as unmarried.

Latest updates

Most recently noted in public records is Naina’s 2022 candidacy for the Gujarat assembly from Jamnagar on the Indian National Congress ticket and her ongoing role as a district women’s leader. She continues to be active in local politics and media discussions in Gujarat.
