Led by Raghav Chadha, seven of Aam Aadmi Party's 10 Rajya Sabha MPs announced on Friday they are merging with the Bharatiya Janata Party. They invoked the two-thirds merger provision under the anti-defection law to avoid disqualification. AAP has demanded their disqualification from the Upper House.
Seven Rajya Sabha MPs from the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) have defected to the BJP.

In Punjab's Sangrur district, two factions of the Aam Aadmi Party clashed over the Bhawanigarh Truck Union presidency. One group declared Malvinder Singh Mala president unanimously, while supporters of MLA Narendra Kaur Bharaj deemed the process undemocratic and protested. Protesters blocked the Bathinda-Chandigarh highway and pelted stones at police.
As Chhath Puja celebrations continue in Delhi, the Aam Aadmi Party accused the BJP-led government of creating an artificial pond with filtered water at Vasudev Ghat for Prime Minister Narendra Modi's ceremonial dip. The BJP dismissed the allegations as political frustration and defended efforts to clean the Yamuna for devotees. The controversy highlights tensions ahead of Bihar elections amid the festival's cultural significance for Delhi's Purvanchali community.
