Veteran BJP leader and Chandini Chowk MP, Dr. Harsh Vardhan, has announced his departure from active politics following alleged denial of a ticket for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.
His decision came in response to the Delhi BJP's declaration of candidates for five constituencies, including Praveen Khandelwal in Chandni Chowk, on Saturday.
Dr. Vardhan, with a distinguished political career spanning five-time MLA and two-time MP from the constituency, has previously served as Union Minister of Health and Union Environment Minister.
In his announcement, he hinted at a return to his profession as an ENT surgeon and expressed intent to resume duties at his clinic in East Delhi's Krishna Nagar
