The former Army General further explained his rationale, emphasising his desire to redirect his energy and time towards new avenues of serving the nation. “I have dedicated my entire life to serving this nation as a soldier. For the past 10 years, I have tirelessly worked towards fulfilling the dream of making Ghaziabad a world-class city. Along this journey, I am grateful for the trust and love I have received from the citizens of the country and Ghaziabad, as well as members of the BJP. This emotional bond is invaluable to me,” the tweet read.
