**Punjab MLA Anmol Gagan Maan Resigns From Assembly, Quits Politics**

**Chandigarh – July 19, 2025** – In a surprising move, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Anmol Gagan Maan has resigned from her position as a member of the Punjab Assembly and announced her departure from politics. The MLA representing the Kharar constituency submitted her resignation to Punjab Assembly Speaker Kultar Singh Sandhwan earlier today.

Maan, a former singer who transitioned into politics, shared her decision in a post on X. “My heart is heavy, but I have decided to leave politics. My resignation from the post of MLA to the Speaker should be accepted,” she wrote in Punjabi. “My best wishes are with the party. I hope the Punjab government will live up to the expectations of the people.”

Elected in the 2022 Punjab Assembly polls, Maan initially held significant portfolios including Tourism and Culture, Investment Promotion, Labour, and Hospitality. However, she was among four ministers dropped from the Bhagwant Mann government’s cabinet last year.

Prior to her political career, Maan was a well-known singer with popular songs like ‘Suit’, ‘Ghaint Purpose’ and ‘Sherni’. Her decision to step away from politics marks a significant shift in her career path.
