Congress Leader Withdraws Candidacy From Ahmedabad East Lok Sabha Seat

Rohan Gupta was among the 43 candidates announced by the Congress on March 12, which included seven candidates from Gujarat.

Congress leader Rohan Gupta on Monday announced his decision to withdraw his candidature from the Ahmedabad East Lok Sabha seat owing to his father's "serious medical condition."

"Due to serious medical condition, my father is admitted in hospital and I am withdrawing my candidature for Ahmedabad east parliament seat as Congress Candidate. I will extend complete support to the new candidate nominated by party," Gupta said in a post on 'X'.

The Congress national spokesperson also shared his letter stating the withdrawal of his candidature along with his post.
