The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has appointed Ashok Mittal as its new deputy leader in the Rajya Sabha, replacing Raghav Chadha. The move has drawn attention within political circles, especially as the party has not publicly clarified the reasons behind the change.
According to reports by India Today, the decision comes at a time when Chadha has maintained a relatively low public profile. His absence from recent parliamentary activities had already raised questions, and this development has further fueled speculation regarding his role within the party.

Party sources have not issued an official explanation for the leadership reshuffle in the Upper House. Meanwhile, AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal has also not commented on the matter, adding to the uncertainty surrounding the decision.
Ashok Mittal, who now takes over the responsibility, is expected to handle floor coordination and legislative strategy for the party in the Rajya Sabha. His appointment signals a shift in the party’s parliamentary approach, though no formal statement outlining the rationale has been released.
The development comes amid ongoing political activity and internal adjustments within AAP. Observers note that such changes often reflect evolving priorities or strategic recalibrations, though the party has chosen not to elaborate publicly in this instance.
As the situation unfolds, attention remains on whether the party leadership will address the reasons behind Chadha’s replacement and clarify his future role within the organisation.
