At 5 pm, the three Aam Aadmi Party MPs, Sandeep Pathak, Raghav Chadha, and Ashok Mittal, will meet BJP president Nitin Naveen.
Raghav Chadha has announced that he will join the Bharatiya Janata Party, along with two-thirds of the Aam Aadmi Party MPs in the Rajya Sabha, in a move seen as a significant setback for former Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal, coming weeks after his reported demotion within the party.
Addressing a press conference on Friday, Chadha said, “We have decided that we, the two-thirds members belonging to the AAP in Rajya Sabha, exercise the provisions of the Constitution of India and merge ourselves with the BJP.”
