The Story in Brief
BJP Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha met Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday and called it “a morning I will cherish”. Chadha, who left the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in April with six other MPs to join the BJP, described the interaction as “detailed and enriching”. He thanked Modi for his “insights and guidance”. The meeting comes a day after the PM hosted over 45 MPs from NDA allies, including rebel Trinamool Congress MPs and Shiv Sena members, at a breakfast meeting where Modi stressed discipline in Parliament.
Political observers see Chadha's meeting as significant ahead of the Punjab assembly elections. Chadha, once seen as AAP's key strategist in the state, is expected to play a prominent role for the BJP in Punjab. The meeting also followed Shiromani Akali Dal chief Sukhbir Singh Badal's meeting with Modi on Friday, sparking speculation about a possible BJP-SAD alliance revival.
The Indian Opinion
The political chatter around Chadha's meeting with Modi and his sudden shift from questioning to praising the government feels like a masterclass in realpolitik. But calling every defector's quietude a sign of maturity stretches credibility. The real test is whether Punjab's urban voters, tired of empty promises, will believe in yet another turncoat's vision. Watch how Chadha performs in Jalandhar next year.
