Her car was vandalised. Her windshield smashed. Shards of glass pierced her body.”“Amit Shah threatened our leaders and party workers that anyone who steps out of their house would be hung upside down. Today, that threat was acted upon,” the party said.“This is an attempt on the life of an elected Member of Parliament. Amit Shah issued the order from the stage. His lumpens carried it out on the street. The chain of command is direct. The responsibility is his,” it added.Bag was reportedly admitted to a local hospital. Officials said the situation in the area remains peaceful at present, with security forces maintaining strict vigilance.The Arambag seat is currently held by the BJP’s Madhusudan Bag, who defeated TMC’s Sujata Mondal by a margin of 7,172 (3.3 per cent) votes.The seat used to be a CPI(M) bastion before the 2011 delimitation. The TMC won the seat in 2011 and 2016 before losing it to the BJP in the 2021 polls.The BJP has fielded Hemanta Bag against the TMC’s Mita Bag to defend the constituency. CPI(M)’s Bithika Pandit is also in the fray.Earlier in the day, West Bengal Police arrested four individuals in connection with violent clashes between TMC and BJP supporters in front of the Jagatdal Police Station.Polling for the second phase of elections is scheduled for April 29, while counting of votes will take place on May 4.About the AuthorTOI News DeskThe TOI News Desk comprises a dedicated and tireless team of journalists who operate around the clock to deliver the most current and comprehensive news and updates to the readers of The Times of India worldwide.

I want to say that when we change jobs or work in a company, it has nothing to do with ideology. You join and stay in a political party because of ideology. Still, I would say that if Raghav was not comfortable in that party, he had every right to leave. But even when you change jobs within a company, you give a three-month notice. You inform your employer that you are moving to a new company and take time to transfer your knowledge. Since you have worked there for years, it is your responsibility. You don’t conspire to destroy the company you are leaving,” Bharadwaj said.Bharadwaj said that Raghav Chadha entered into a conspiracy with the BJP after the Enforcement Directorate tightened its grip on him.Also read: Raghav Chadha addresses backlash on joining BJP in new video, cites ‘toxic work environment’ in AAP“What did you do instead? When the ED tightened its grip on you, you decided to join the BJP, but you did not tell anyone. You entered into a conspiracy with the BJP. From day one, the BJP was part of this. The idea, as claimed, was to build an image of an independent, middle-class, youth leader raising issues, and the BJP would support it. How would they support it? Issues already in the central government’s pipeline—like cheaper food at airports, changes in mobile recharge rules by TRAI, paternity leave, or measures for gig workers like Zomato and Swiggy employees—would be flagged to Raghav. He would raise them, quick action would follow, and his popularity would grow, creating a ‘neutral’ image,” Bharadwaj said.“The central government always had the chance to publicly say these were already its initiatives, but it didn’t contradict him. Why? Because, as alleged, there was coordination between Raghav and the BJP. The government was helping build his image,” he added.This comes hours after Chadha addressed criticism surrounding his decision to join the BJP.In a video shared on Instagram, Raghav Chadha said he had been receiving a large number of messages following his announcement. “For the past three days, I have been getting a lot of messages from all of you. Most of you are giving me best wishes and congratulating me, while some want to know the reasons behind my decision,” he said.Chadha said he had devoted 15 years of his youth to the Aam Aadmi Party, describing himself as a founding member. “I didn’t come into politics to make my career. I became a founding member of a political party. I gave 15 years of my prime youth to this party with my blood, sweat and hard work,” he said.Responding to criticism that the exit was driven by pressure or fear, Chadha rejected the allegation. “We did not leave out of fear but because of disappointment, disenchantment and disgust,” he said.He further asserted that despite leaving AAP, he would continue his political engagement and public outreach. “I will continue to raise your problems with more energy and enthusiasm,” he said.Within 24 hours of announcing his exit from the Aam Aadmi Party and joining the Bharatiya Janata Party, Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha reportedly saw a sharp decline in his Instagram following, losing over 1 million followers—a number that later rose to nearly 2 million. His move also triggered a strong backlash on social media, with several of his supporters criticising his decision to join the BJP.In addition, his old video clips and past statements in which he had criticised the Bharatiya Janata Party resurfaced online, further intensifying the debate around his political shift.About the AuthorTOI News DeskThe TOI News Desk comprises a dedicated and tireless team of journalists who operate around the clock to deliver the most current and comprehensive news and updates to the readers of The Times of India worldwide.
