Ex-AAP leader Naveen Jaihind calls Raghav Chadha Kejriwal’s ‘raazdaar’, says whole dispute related to ‘extortion’

Amid the ongoing dispute within the Aam Aadmi Party surrounding its leaders and party MP Raghav Chadha, former AAP Haryana leader Naveen Jaihind called Chadha Arvind Kejriwal’s “raazdaar” and stressed that the entire dispute is over the money “extorted” from Delhi and Punjab.

Speaking on Saturday, Jaihind alleged that Raghav Chadha collected extortion money from Delhi and Punjab, which was later taken to London by him and was supposed to be taken to Singapore earlier. Following all the developments, the former AAP leader claimed that Chadha was beaten first in New Delhi and then at the “secret mansion” in Chandigarh.

“Raghav Chadha is Kejriwal’s maaldaar (rich) and raazdaar (confidant) and the real controversy is about the money extorted from Punjab and Delhi. The money that was supposed to be sent to Singapore, he (Raghav Chadha) took to England. During this time, he was stood up like a rooster in Delhi and then beaten in the secret mansion in Chandigarh. This is the whole point. This is about money and corruption, nothing else,” said Jaihind.

The entire controversy started after Raghav Chadha was removed from the post of deputy leader of the Aam Aadmi Party in the Rajya Sabha earlier this week, following which the AAP MP criticized the party leadership, accusing it of silencing his voice.

Following Chadha’s remarks, several leaders of AAP came out strongly against him, saying that he was said to be “compromised” and that he was afraid of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Chadha on Saturday responded to the allegations following his removal as Deputy Leader of the Aam Aadmi Party in the Rajya Sabha, calling them a “coordinated attack” and denying allegations that he had refused to quit Parliament or sign the impeachment motion against the Chief Election Commissioner.
Chadha said in his post on X that a scripted campaign was being carried out against him. “A scripted campaign has been going on against me since yesterday. The same language, the same words, the same allegations. This is not a coincidence, it is a coordinated attack. At first I thought I shouldn’t respond. Then I thought that if a lie is repeated 100 times, some people will believe it. So I decided to respond,” he said.
