Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha on Saturday dismissed allegations made by the Aam Aadmi Party, describing them as “baseless” and part of a “coordinated attempt” to malign him.

In a video statement, Chadha asserted that his role in Parliament is to make a meaningful contribution rather than create disruption. “I go to Parliament to create impact, not ruckus,” he said.

Responding to claims that he had skipped opposition walkouts, the MP termed the accusation “completely untrue” and challenged critics to point out a single instance where he had not participated. He noted that parliamentary proceedings are recorded, making such claims easy to verify.

Addressing another allegation — that he declined to sign a motion concerning the Chief Election Commissioner — Chadha said he was never approached by party leaders to do so. He added that several other MPs from his party had also not signed the motion.

Highlighting his work, Chadha said he has consistently raised issues of public importance in Parliament, including GST, income tax, Delhi’s air pollution, Punjab’s water concerns, healthcare, education, railway services, menstrual health, unemployment and inflation.

Emphasising accountability, he said Parliament functions on taxpayers’ money and it is his duty to raise citizens’ concerns effectively. “Every falsehood will be exposed,” he added.
