New Delhi: After Gautam Gambir, former Union Minister and BJP MP from Hazaribagh Jayant Sinha on Saturday requested BJP national president JP Nadda to relieve him of his electoral duties.

While stating that he wanted to focus on combating climate change in India and around the world, he also expressed his desire not to contest the upcoming Lok Sabha elections. “I have requested JP Nadda to relieve me of my direct electoral duties so that I can focus my efforts on combating global climate change in Bharat and around the world.
