Raghav Chadha on Thursday said BJP's lies would be exposed after four MPs accused the AAP MP of proposing their names for the constitution of a select committee on the Delhi Services Bill without their consent. Speaking at a press conference, Chadha challenged the BJP to show him the piece of paper where they claimed the forged signatures were made.

"A baseless rumour is being spread. I challenge the BJP leaders to show me the piece of paper that has those signatures," Raghav Chadha said.

"The Rajya Sabha rule book states that no signature or written consent of a member, whose name has been proposed for the select committee, is required. It nowhere states that you require signature or written consent from that proposed member," the AAP MP further said.
