AAP leader Anmol Gagan Maan on Saturday resigned from the Punjab Assembly and announced that she is quitting politics.
Maan, who was the MLA from the Kharar constituency, sent her resignation to Punjab Assembly Speaker Kultar Singh Sandhwan.
In a post in Punjabi on X, she wrote, “My heart is heavy, but I have decided to step away from politics. I request the Hon’ble Speaker to accept my resignation from the position of MLA. My best wishes remain with the party. I hope the Punjab Government lives up to the expectations of the people.”
Maan, a singer-turned-politician, was elected from Kharar in the 2022 Punjab Assembly elections.
She also served as a minister and handled portfolios including tourism and culture, investment promotion, labour, and hospitality. However, she was one of four ministers dropped from the Cabinet by Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann last year.
Before entering politics, Maan was known for her Punjabi songs like Suit, Ghaint Purpose, and Sherni.
