Varun highlighted his dedication to championing the common man’s interests and sought the people’s blessings to continue this work, regardless of the circumstances. He emphasized the enduring bond of love and trust between him and Pilibhit, transcending political considerations.
Varun’s letter comes amidst reports of his disappointment with the BJP leadership’s decision to field Jitin Prasada from Pilibhit instead of him. However, Varun refrained from criticizing the party in his letter, focusing instead on expressing gratitude to the people of Pilibhit. The decision not to nominate Varun Gandhi, a two-time MP from Pilibhit, marks a departure from the longstanding tradition of the Gandhi family representing the constituency.

Despite his absence from the electoral fray, Varun’s letter reaffirmed his commitment to serving the people of Pilibhit as their devoted son. Meanwhile, amidst speculation about his political future, Varun Gandhi received an invitation from the Congress party. Congress MP Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury extended an offer to Varun to join the party, citing his clean image and connection to the Gandhi family.
The upcoming Lok Sabha election in Uttar Pradesh holds significant political implications, with the BJP aiming for a strong performance to maintain its dominance. The opposition, comprising the Congress and the Samajwadi Party, is gearing up for a competitive contest across the state’s 80 seats. With Varun Gandhi’s future political trajectory uncertain, his heartfelt letter to the people of Pilibhit reflects his enduring commitment to public service and underscores the deep-rooted bond he shares with his constituency.
