Ojha's post on X
In a post on X, Ojha thanked AAP leadership and workers for their support. He wrote, "Respected Arvind ji, Manish ji, Sanjay ji, all AAP office-bearers, workers, leaders etc., a heartfelt thank you to all of you. I shall remain indebted for the love and respect you have given me. Retirement from politics is my personal decision. Arvind ji, you are a very great leader. Jai Hind." He also expressed his gratitude to the residents of Patparganj for their affection during his campaign.
Notably, Ojha had been chosen to replace former Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia, who won the Patparganj seat in 2013, 2015 and 2020. This year, Sisodia contested from Jangpura but lost to the BJP's Tarvinder Singh Marwah by over 600 votes.

Somnath Bharti reacts sharply to Ojha's exit
Reacting to Ojha's announcement, AAP leader Somnath Bharti posted a detailed message on X, stating his disappointment over the move. "I have personal regard for you @OjhaAvadh57 Ji but politics is not a short-term project and a person of your maturity and prominence should have weighed options before stepping into Politics and that too with @AamAadmiParty," Bharti wrote.

Bharti added that several long-time party workers had hoped for a ticket from Patparganj but the party trusted Ojha to contribute meaningfully beyond election results. He emphasised that AAP represents the future of India and highlighted the party's focus on education, healthcare and other public welfare areas. Which party talks of reforms in education, healthcare and other basic needs of ordinary people which makes over 90% population of India," Bharti asked while stressing that parties like the BJP and Congress do not talk about people's concerns.
