Not Joining Any Party Or Contesting Elections: Sanjay Dutt

Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt on Monday confirmed that he has no plans to enter politics. He denied reports about contesting in the upcoming 2024 Lok Sabha elections.

Taking to X, Sanjay Dutt posted, “I would like to put all rumors about me joining politics to rest. I am not joining any party or contesting elections. If I do decide to step into the political arena then I will be the first one to announce it.”

Sanjay also urged fans not to trust social media gossip.

He further stated, “Please refrain from believing what is being circulated in the news about me as of now.”

The post comes amid speculation that the 64-year-old actor would be contesting the upcoming Lok Sabha polls as a Congress candidate from Haryana’s Karnal.

Earlier in 2009, Sanjay Dutt was a Samajwadi Party candidate in the Lucknow Lok Sabha constituency. However, he withdrew his candidacy after the court declined to suspend his conviction under the Arms Act. Later, he served as a general secretary but eventually resigned and parted ways with the party.
