Some Lesser Known Facts About Raghav Chadha

Raghav Chadha is an Indian politician who is the face of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on prime time TV debates. He is also considered the youngest spokesperson of the Aam Aadmi Party.
He is considered one of the most eligible bachelors among the Indian politicians, and women find this chartered accountant-turned-politician more “adorable” than “aam” and often send him marriage proposals. However, when asked about his relationship status, he admits,

I am single. I don’t have time to watch a movie, you think I’ll have time for a girl? There is only one girl who understands my schedule, and that’s my mother.”
He did his schooling from Modern School in New Delhi, where he used to actively participate in extra-curricular activities.

At the fag end of Anna Aandolan, Raghav met Arvind Kejriwal who was planning to form a political party. Arvind wanted Raghav to get involved with the drafting of the “Jan Lokpal Bill,” back in 2012. After Anna Aandolan, Raghav joined Kejriwal’s newly formed AAP and since then, he has been associated with the party in different capacities.
Before coming into politics, Raghav had worked for several MNCs like Deloitte, and Grant Thornton as a CA. He was also setting up his own practice in London when the “India Against Corruption” (IAC) movement started.
While talking about his personal life, he replies,

I’m a CA, but in the last few years, I’ve put my personal work on autopilot. The time I have for my work, for my personal life, is almost negligible with the kind of work we’re doing. I still have a few friends who I hang out with, on and off. They’re obviously surprised to see me doing this. I’m the only person who’s joined politics after sacrificing a career. I had an offer from a multi-national corporate advisory company, running into six-seven figures, but I refused it.”
Raghav has also spent two years with Ram Jethmalani while working on the Arun Jaitley defamation case.
