Master blaster Sachin Tendulkar will take oath as a member of Rajya Sabha on Monday in the chamber of chairman Hamid Ansari. President Pratibha Patil had approved the cricket legend's nomination along with Bollywood actor Rekha and businesswoman Anu Aga in April for the Upper House of the Parliament on the Prime Minister’s recommendations.

Tendulkar is the second sportsperson in the House after former hockey captain Dilip Tirkey. While Rekha and Aga were sworn in in May, Sachin could not take oath earlier due to his IPL commitments which ended in the last week of May.
