In an unexpected move, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Member of Parliament Gautam Gambhir has decided to withdraw from active politics. The renowned former cricketer, who represented East Delhi, took to Twitter to announce his departure and emphasize his commitment to refocusing on his cricket career, a passion he held before venturing into the political arena.
Gambhir expressed his decision in a tweet, stating, “I have requested Hon’ble Party President JP Nadda ji to relieve me of my political duties so that I can focus on my upcoming cricket commitments. I sincerely thank Hon’ble PM Narendra Modi for giving me the opportunity to serve the people. Jai Hind.”
Having joined the BJP in March 2019, Gambhir quickly became a prominent face of the party in Delhi. His significant victory in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, securing the East Delhi seat with a substantial margin of 6,95,109 votes, further solidified his position within the political landscape.
The surprising announcement to step away from politics has sparked speculation, with reports suggesting that Gambhir’s decision may be influenced by the uncertainty of receiving a ticket for the upcoming 2024 polls. The former cricketer’s move underscores his dedication to his sporting roots and signifies a return to the cricket field, where he achieved remarkable success before transitioning into the political arena.
Gautam Gambhir’s foray into politics has left an indelible mark on the BJP, and his departure marks the end of an impactful chapter in the party’s Delhi narrative. As the political landscape evolves, eyes are now set on the unfolding developments surrounding Gambhir’s future in cricket and the upcoming electoral scenario.
