India, March 2 -- BJP MP Gautam Gambhir on Saturday wrote on X that he has asked party chief JP Nadda to "relieve me of my political duties". The Delhi politician, one of the foremost critics of AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal, said he wants to focus on his upcoming cricket commitments.

"I have requested BJP 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 ji and Amit Shah ji for giving me the opportunity to serve the people. Jai Hind!," he wrote.

He, however, didn't clarify if he is quitting politics.
