Raghav Chadha Gets Harvard Call, Nidhi Razdan's Parody Account Chips In: 'Ache Se Mail Check Karle Bhai'

Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader and Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha announced on Thursday, 6th March, that he has been invited to participate in the prestigious Global Leadership Program at Harvard Kennedy School in the United States.

Taking to 'X', he expressed his excitement about the invitation, stating, "Learning is a lifelong journey! I am delighted to share that I've been selected by the prestigious Harvard University for its program on Global Leadership and Public Policy for the 21st Century - at Harvard Kennedy School @Kennedy_School in Boston, USA."

The AAP MP further highlighted that, as one of the youngest members of the Rajya Sabha, his primary goal has always been to address issues concerning the common people.

"As one of the youngest members of the Rajya Sabha, my mission has always been to address the issues that matter most to the people and champion their aspirations. This learning experience with a diverse cohort of handpicked achievers from @YGLvoices will broaden my horizons and enable me to serve you better. I look forward to learning from global leaders and peers, gaining perspectives that can help drive meaningful, people-centric policy changes in India. Looking forward to connecting with everyone at Harvard!" he added.

Meanwhile, a parody account impersonating journalist Nidhi Razdan reshared Chadha's post, humorously commenting, "Ache se email check kar le bhai." (Check the email properly, brother).

Razdan herself then joined the conversation, clarifying that it was her parody account that had reposted Chadha's announcement. However, she playfully added that checking the email again wouldn't be a bad idea.

"Hi @raghav_chadha, this is not a bad suggestion. Take it from someone who knows. And ironically, many of you who mock me can't tell the difference between a parody account and the real person," she wrote.

The banter became even more entertaining when Raghav Chadha responded to Razdan's witty remark, stating, "Turns out, the email was genuine! Excited to begin this journey of learning! And to those asking who paid for it - I appreciate you holding me accountable - it's a fully-funded program."

Raghav Chadha, a founding member of the Arvind Kejriwal-led AAP, has been serving as a Rajya Sabha member from Punjab since 2022. Prior to this, he was a Member of the Legislative Assembly of Delhi, representing the Rajinder Nagar constituency from 2020 to 2022.
