Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Raghav Chadha on Sunday responded to criticism from his own party, which accused him of not raising Punjab-related issues while he was serving as the party’s deputy leader in the Rajya Sabha. His reaction came a day after he was removed from the post.
In a post on X, Chadha responded to the allegations, emphasising that Punjab is not just his home but “duty, soil and soul.”

“To my colleagues in AAP who were forced to issue videos saying that “Raghav Chadha failed to raise Punjab’s issues in Parliament”, here is a small trailer…Picture Abhi Baaki Hai. Punjab isn’t a talking point for me. It is my home, my duty, my soil, my soul.”

Chadha on Saturday hit back at allegations following his removal as Deputy Leader of the Aam Aadmi Party in the Rajya Sabha, calling them a “coordinated attack” and denying claims that he refused to walk out of Parliament or sign an impeachment motion against the Chief Election Commissioner.
In a post on X, Chadha said a scripted campaign was being run against him.”Since yesterday, a scripted campaign has been going on against me. Same language, same words, same allegations. This is no coincidence, but a coordinated attack. At first, I thought I shouldn’t respond. Then I thought that if a lie is repeated 100 times, some people might believe it. So, I decided to respond,” he said.
