New Delhi, Apr 15 (IBNS): Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley on Sunday took oath as the Rajya Sabha MP for another term.

He will be representing the Parliament from Uttar Pradesh.

"Took oath of office as Rajya Sabha Member representing Uttar Pradesh, April 15, 2018," Jaitley tweeted.



He was unable to take oath due to illness.
