Anmol Gagan Maan stepped down from her position as Kharar MLA and abandoned her political career on Saturday. The Aam Aadmi Party legislator announced her departure through the social media platform X. She submitted her resignation letter to the Assembly Speaker and wished her former party well. Maan expressed hope that the Punjab government would meet public expectations—her decision shocked observers, given her recent praise for party leader Arvind Kejriwal.
The resignation followed a meeting on July 15 with AAP national convenor Kejriwal. Maan had described his societal vision as inspiring after their discussion. Punjab Congress president Amarinder Singh Raja Warring criticized AAP's internal stability. He referenced the recent suspension of Amritsar North MLA Kunwar Vijay Pratap Singh for allegedly engaging in anti-party behavior. Political analysts view these departures as signs of deeper organizational problems within Punjab's ruling party ahead of upcoming elections.
