Jyotiraditya Scindia was born on January 1, 1971 in Mumbai which makes him among the youngest in the Parliament. Elected to the Lok Sabha in February 2002 from his father the late Madhavrao Scindia's constituency Guna in Madhya Pradesh, Jyotiraditya was initiated into his new career with an almost unprecedented lead of votes - a lead of more than 450,000.

To fulfil even a fraction of the great expectations people have from him, Jyotiraditya Scindia will need to prove himself as much more than his father' son. As if the burden of late Madhavrao's legacy were not enough, the scion of the Scindia family is also being looked upon as the flagbearer for the next generation of India's political leadership that includes Varun Gandhi and Sachin Pilot, among others.

When Jamie Horsley, a lecturer in law and an eminent China expert at the prestigious Yale University in Connecticut, entered her classroom Monday afternoon, she knew before hand that this is not going to be different one.

''But certainly (the expectations was) not of this level. Questions (asked by her students at this one off class) were really stimulating,'' Horsley, Deputy Director, The China Law Centre, told NDTV.Com, soon after her class, which lasted for 120 minutes inside Yale University Campus, got over.


''They are very intelligent, they were very articulate, I learned from them as well,'' she said. Why not? If her students happened to be more than a dozen eminent Members of Parliamentarians from India: the world's largest democracy.

Unlike her routine classes, sitting in front of her were spokespersons of two major national political parties Abhishek M Singhvi of Congress and Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi of BJP, the Minister of State for Communications Jyotiraditya Scindia, the former Union Minister Suresh Prabhu and media barons like Shobhana Bhartia - nominated to Rajya Sabha. These MPs are in the US as part of the 2008 India-Yale parliamentary Leadership Programme.

During their week-long stay in the US, these Indian parliamentarians would be exposed to a series of academic sessions over a period of four days followed by a wide range of meetings with politicians, think tank and government officials in Washington. The programme was launched last year in collaboration with the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry and the India-US Forum of Parliamentarians. This is the second batch of MPs.
