In light of his suspension from the House, the Supreme Court on Friday ordered suspended Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Raghav Chadha to meet with Rajya Sabha Chairperson Jagdeep Dhankhar and offer an unconditional apology. Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud, Justices JB Pardiwala and Manoj Misra, and the rest of the bench hoped the Chairperson would adopt a “sympathetic” stance. The MP intends to maintain the honour of the House of which he is a member, and he will make an appointment with the Chairperson of the Rajya Sabha to offer an unconditional apology, according to statements made by Chadha’s lawyer, which the bench duly noted.
Chadha was suspended for not obtaining the consent of five Rajya Sabha members before proposing their names for a Select Committee.
The bench asked the Attorney General for India R Venkataramani and Solicitor General Tushar Mehta to apprise it of the developments in the matter after the Diwali vacation.
Chadha’s counsel told the bench that he is the youngest member of the House and he had no problem in tendering the apology.
