New Delhi : The recently appointed AAP West Delhi Lok Sabha in-charge Rajpal Solanki was admitted to a hospital here after he had a "minor heart attack", a statement said on Thursday.

Solanki suffered from a heart attack on Tuesday night, of which he informed Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) supremo Arvind Kejriwal through a letter.

"I have been admitted to a hospital after having a minor heart attack on Tuesday night. Doctors have advised me to rest and hence, I won't be able to carry out the duties of being a Lok Sabha in-charge," he wrote.

Solanki has been working in the education and health sectors and was managing the Venkateshwar Hospital in Dwarka and many other schools in the area.
