Earlier this week, Raghav Chadha was accused of forging the signatures of four MPs, who said that he had proposed their names to send the Delhi NCT Amendment Bill to the Select Committee panel without their consent.
Refuting the claims of forgery, Chadha said that as per the rule book, any member of parliament “can propose the name for the formation of any committee.”
“The rule book says that any 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,” the AAP leader said.
