The Ghaziabad administration has been asked to find out if cricketer Suresh Raina is ready to be the brand ambassador of the Uttar Pradesh poll panel.
Jitendra Kumar Sharma, Additional District Magistrate of Ghaziabad, said the Chief Election Officer had asked the district administration to coordinate with Raina and seek his consent as he belongs to Ghaziabad.
Earlier, the cricketer had been the brand ambassador of the Ghaziabad Municipal Corporation's "Swachh Bharat Abhiyan".
The district administration has sent a letter to Raina. "We are waiting his reply," said the officer.
