I won’t fight 2019 Lok Sabha poll: Uma Bharti
07:48AM Wed 5 Dec, 2018
Union Minister Uma Bharti on Tuesday said she won’t contest the next Lok Sabha election.
The senior BJP leader’s announcement came days after her Cabinet colleague Sushma Swaraj said she would not contest the poll too.
Ms. Bharti said she will instead concentrate on the issues of Ram temple in Ayodhya and cleanliness of the Ganga for the next one-and-a half years.
Ms. Bharti said she would “embark on a pilgrimage to devote time for Ganga river and Lord Ram by leaving power”.
