The rift between the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and Raghav Chadha deepened after he joined the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), citing a 'toxic work environment' as his reason for leaving. In a video response, AAP leader Saurabh Bharadwaj accused Chadha of conspiring with the BJP to undermine AAP. Bharadwaj emphasized that Chadha's political success is largely due to the opportunities provided by AAP, stating, 'You are even married today because this party had made you a Rajya Sabha member.'
