While speaking in Rajya Sabha, AAP leader Raghav Chadha said, "The leader of the party I belong to isn't present in the House." "The newly appointed [AAP's] deputy leader...is also not present in House. I am the recently removed deputy leader, and I am present," he added. Industrialist-politician Ashok Mittal recently replaced Chadha as AAP's deputy leader in Rajya Sabha.
