New Delhi: Aam Aadmi Party leader Raghav Chadha on Thursday hit out at the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) over “forged signatures” allegations by five Rajya Sabha MPs and challenged the BJP to show him the piece of paper where they are claiming the forged signatures.
Chadha’s statement came after Union Home Minister Amit Shah in the Rajya Sabha alleged fraud after five MPs of the Upper House — S Phangnon Konyak, Narhari Amin and Sudhanshu Trivedi of BJP, M Thambidurai of AIADMK and Sasmit Patra of BJD — said that their name was included without their consent in a motion moved by Chadha in the House.
मैंने इनके बड़े नेताओं के ख़िलाफ़ मज़बूती से आवाज़ उठाई,
मैंने Atal Bihari Vajpayee और Advani जी के वक्तव्य दिखा कर, इन्हें Expose किया
इन्हें इस बात से दिक़्क़त हुई कि एक सुपारी जितनी पार्टी का युवा नेता इनके नेताओं के ख़िलाफ़ बोला तो बोला कैसे?

While addressing a press conference in the national capital, Chadha said, “I challenge the BJP leaders to bring the paper on which forged signatures were done.”
Citing the rule book AAP leader said that MP can propose the name for the formation of any committee and neither the signature nor the written consent of the person whose name is proposed is required.
“But a lie was spread that forged signatures were done,” he added.
मैं BJP को चुनौती देता हूँ कि वो कागज़ दिखाए, जिस पर फ़र्ज़ी Signature हैं।
जब भी कोई Controversial Bill आता है तो उस पर अधिक चर्चा के लिए Selection Committee बनाई जा सकती है, जिसमे सदस्यों का नाम प्रस्तावित किया जा सकता है

He further requested the media to show the truth and said that will file a case against small section of the media who were running propaganda against him.
“I request the media to show the truth. A small section of the media was running propaganda against me and I will have to file a complaint against them. I will also have to file a complaint in Court and Privileges Committee against those MPs who claimed that the signatures were forged,” he added.
लोकतंत्र के चौथे स्तंभ, Media से 🙏 अनुरोध— सच दिखाएं, BJP के propaganda में ना फंसे
कुछ Media Channel ने गलत खबर चलाई, उनके खिलाफ़ मुझे मजबूरन कानूनी कार्रवाई करनी पड़ेगी
जिन सांसदों ने Forgery के झूठे आरोप लगाए, उनपर भी मुझे मजबूरन कानूनी कार्रवाई करनी पड़ेगी

Meanwhile, AAP leader Sanjay Singh was also present during the conference and said that BJP government wants to end Chadha’s Rajya Sabha membership just like they did with Congress leader Rahul Gandhi.
BJP का मूलमंत्र —‼️ Repeat a Lie 1000 Times, and it’ll be taken as Truth ‼️
मेरे खिलाफ़ Propaganda शुरू किया गया, कि मेरे हस्ताक्षर में फर्जीवाड़ा हो गया

“A new tradition has started that whoever speaks against Modi ji, take action against him. Home Minister Amit Shah should know that no signature is required to propose the name. The party is trying to end the membership of Raghav Chadha like Rahul Gandhi,” Sanjay Singh said at a press conference.
“The BJP’s mantra is to tell a lie 1,000 times to make it sound like the truth. The BJP floated this false narrative that signatures were forged,” he added.
BJP तानशाही घोषित कर दे, लोकतंत्र का ड्रामा क्यों कर रही है?
Modi सरकार ने एक नई परंपरा शुरू की है।
जो भी Modi जी के ख़िलाफ़ बोलेगा, उसे सरकार निलंबित कर देगी, सदस्यता छीन लेगी या FIR कर देगी।

Union Home Minister Amit Shah speaking in Rajya Sabha on Delhi Services Bill yesterday said, “Two members (BJD MP Sasmit Patra and BJP MP Dr Sudhanshu Trivedi) are saying that they have not signed the motion (to be part of select committee) moved by AAP MP Raghav Chadha. Now it is a matter of investigation how the motion was signed.”
