The recent resignation of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Rajya Sabha members underscores a growing fracture within the party, tracing back to 2024 accusations of assault against a Kejriwal aide. The situation escalated when Raghav Chadha was removed as deputy leader. Despite various speculations, their departure stunned party circles.
Earlier, AAP's Ashok Mittal faced raids linked to a FEMA case, exacerbating tensions. Sanjay Singh, a senior AAP leader, blamed 'Operation Lotus' by the BJP for coercing these resignations amid fears of Enforcement Directorate and CBI actions.
Raghav Chadha, once a rising star of AAP, faced setbacks after distancing from the party during Kejriwal's legal troubles. His exclusion from pivotal roles marked a steep decline in influence, culminating in a sharp public fallout. Meanwhile, Maliwal's allegations of corruption and harassment reveal deeper systemic issues, casting shadows over AAP's future in upcoming assembly polls.
