New Delhi, Aug 22 (IBNS):  Ashish Khetan on Wednesday announced his decision of quitting the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP).

He left the party just days after another former AAP leader Ashutosh left the party.

Ashish said he is "not involved in active politics".

"I am completely focussed on my legal practice and not involved in active politics at the moment. Rest is all extrapolation," Ashish tweeted.

"I had resigned from DDC in April, to join the legal profession. That is all. Not interested in rumours," he said.

Ashish had joined the Aam Aadmi Party in 2014.

He contested the Lok Sabha polls from  New Delhi constituency.

He was defeated in the polls by BJP's Meenakshi Lekhi.
