Sitharaman’s daughter Wangmayi writes articles for Mint Lounge. She works as a multimedia journalist and a reporter for a leading daily, where she focuses on writing about literary culture, social policy and media. She also collaborates with several international and Indian news organizations. Wangmayee received advice from visual journalist Aarthi Kumar Rao and two-time Pulitzer Prize winner Paul Salopek.

This is in honor of Daughters’ Day.”
Prateek Doshi: Nirmala Sitharaman’s son-in-law
Doshi works as an Officer on Special Duty (OSD) in the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO). When Narendra Modi became Prime Minister for the first time in 2014, Doshi shifted to the PMO. When Modi was elected for a second term as Prime Minister in June 2019, he was appointed as the OSD in the PMO with the rank of Joint Secretary. Doshi, a Singapore Management School graduate, had earlier worked as a research assistant to the Gujarat CMO when Modi was the chief minister. In the PMO, Doshi is in charge of strategy and research.
In the Andhra Pradesh government from July 2014 to June 2018, Sitharaman’s husband, Parakala Prabhakar, a political economist, worked as a communications advisor and held a cabinet-rank position.
