In a notable shift, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has removed Raghav Chadha from his position as Deputy Leader in the Rajya Sabha, appointing Ashok Mittal to the role. This change reflects possible internal discord within the party, particularly following AAP's defeat in the Delhi elections in 2025. Chadha has increasingly distanced himself from the party's agenda, focusing instead on personal achievements and various issues such as high food costs at airports and the rights of gig workers. His silence on significant AAP matters has led to speculation about his future within the party, especially after he was omitted from the list of star campaigners for Assam. Recently, he has been vocal about the need for paid paternity leave, arguing that caregiving duties should be shared equally between parents, a stance that highlights the challenges faced by fathers in balancing work and family responsibilities.
