BJP MP and former cricketer Gautam Gambhir has grabbed attention by addressing his political career in a recent note. In the post, Gambhir expressed through his platform X that he has urged Honorable Party President JP Nadda ji to release him from his political responsibilities, allowing him to focus on forthcoming cricket commitments.
Acknowledging Honorable PM Narendra Modi ji and Honorable HM Amit Shah ji for the opportunity to serve the public, Gambhir concluded with a patriotic “Jai Hind.” This announcement has sparked speculation regarding Gambhir’s political trajectory, with people voicing their concerns and opinions in the comments section.
On March 2, 2024, Gambhir penned an open letter to JP Nadda via X, yet refrained from confirming his departure from politics. The comment section overflowed with reactions, encompassing both criticism and support for his decision. Nevertheless, Gambhir did not explicitly state his intention to exit the political arena.
A user wrote on the post that he had heard that BJP had denied Gautam’s LS ticket due to his anti-party activities as he is mentoring Mamta Rules and SRK-owned KKR and left Yogi Rules Lucknow for this. Whereas another user wrote that Gautam is the only worthy BJP MP from Delhi.
It is to be noted that Gautam Gambhir made the shocking announcement a few weeks before of the Lok Sabha elections and his tweet aimed to that he will not contest in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections from Delhi this time which has disappointed people.
