As of today, reports indicate that Shehzad Poonawalla has resigned from the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), although the situation is still developing.
Current information includes:
- Multiple news outlets report that Poonawalla submitted his resignation to the BJP leadership, reportedly citing personal reasons.
- He recently updated his profile on X (formerly Twitter), removing references to being a BJP national spokesperson while describing himself as a “lifelong follower” of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. This change sparked widespread speculation before the resignation reports emerged.
- At the time of the latest reports, there had not yet been an official public statement from either Poonawalla or the BJP explaining the reasons for his departure in detail.
The exact reasons for his resignation remain unclear until an official statement is released.
