New Delhi: On Saturday, AAP's Sanjay Singh announced plans to formally request the Rajya Sabha chairman to disqualify seven party MPs who recently resigned from AAP.

Singh emphasized that the anti-defection law prohibits any factional splits within the Rajya Sabha and Lok Sabha, asserting that such divisions lack legal standing, regardless of a two-thirds majority.

He pointed out that neither the anti-defection law nor the Tenth Schedule of the Constitution acknowledges any form of faction or breakaway group in these legislative bodies.

The AAP leader condemned the actions of the seven MPs who have decided to join the BJP, labeling their move as unconstitutional and illegal.

Singh confirmed that he would be reaching out to the Vice President of India and the Rajya Sabha chairman to push for the disqualification of these MPs.

Earlier, AAP Rajya Sabha members Raghav Chadha and Sandeep Pathak revealed that they, along with five other MPs, would be merging with the BJP.

During a press briefing, Chadha stated that seven out of AAP's ten Rajya Sabha MPs are set to join the BJP.
