FollowRajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar on Monday (December 4) made a significant decision by overturning the suspension of Aam Aadmi Party's (AAP) MP Raghav Chadha. This decision came about following a motion presented by Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP GVL Narasimha Rao. Rao proposed that the suspension Chadha had undergone should be considered sufficient punishment and suggested the House deliberate on terminating Chadha's suspension effective immediately.
Chadha, upon learning of this decision, expressed immense joy and appreciation. He conveyed his gratitude to both the Supreme Court and Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar for their pivotal roles in reaching this resolution.
