Delhi BJP chief Adesh Gupta resigns days after MCD defeat, Virendra Sachdeva given interim charge

Delhi BJP president Adesh Gupta resigned Sunday, days after the party’s defeat in the municipal corporation polls to the Aam Aadmi Party. The Aam Aadmi Party ended the BJP’s 15-year-rule in the Municipal of Delhi (MCD) poll in results announced on Wednesday. “The resignation of Adesh Gupta as Delhi BJP president has been accepted as per the direction of BJP national president Shri Jagat Prakash Nadda,” the BJP’s national general secretary Arun Singh said in a communication.
