Merger of AAP MPs Is A Huge Blow For AAP Party?

An educationist and a star strategist of AAP in Punjab, Sandeep Pathak has played a very crucial role in bringing AAP to power. He also studied at IIT Delhi and Cambridge, and was an associate at Oxford University. He is very mild and easily accessible, with a very close rapport with grassroots workers, a source says. He was nominated to the Rajya Sabha in 2022. His shifting loyalty is to hurt AAP much because the vital information, strategy and analysis of voters are with him and it's understood that all will go to the BJP and this information is likely to help the BJP in the coming elections. He was very close to all the senior leadership of the AAP and his departure will always remain shrouded in mystery, the source says. 

Raghav Chaddha, as usual a politician with high ambition and as a source says, has many questions to answer to the agencies but a person who has pledged many times in public to remain in AAP in all weather, changed the colour, this has surprised many, a source says. Ashok Mittal was facing many agencies for the last many days and as a businessman and educationist, perhaps to concentrate on his business empire, he thought it better to change the coat, leaving his best friend Kejriwal in a lurch and plan his future without him, the source says. 

Harbhajan Singh was the personal choice of the CM of Punjab, though not very active but his presence in the party was giving stature to the party sources say. The close relative of Harbhajan Singh’s wife was on the radar of NIA and probably this has forced him to play safe, a source says. Rajendra Gupta, a businessman and owner of Trident has business all over the globe and daily interactions with authorities for export to further improve the reach of business, perhaps forced him to join the ruling party, a source says. This is a clear thought of a pure honest businessman, the source says.
