Which of the following sportspersons has been a nominated Rajya Sabha member since 2022?
PT Usha
Under Article 80 of the Constitution, the President nominates 12 members to the Rajya Sabha for special knowledge or practical experience in literature, science, art and social service.
In July 2022, legendary athlete PT Usha, known as the 'Payyoli Express', was nominated to the Rajya Sabha. In December 2022 she also became the first woman President of the Indian Olympic Association.
Mary Kom was a nominated member from 2016 to 2022 and Sachin Tendulkar from 2012 to 2018, so their terms ended before or in 2022; Abhinav Bindra has never been a Rajya Sabha member.
Hence, the answer is PT Usha.
