Punjab is run by remote control but...: Raghav Chadha

The people change the channels whenever they want, and at present this channel (AAP) will continue, God willing. My party has entrusted me with the work of helping my big brother Bhagwant Mann Ji as his adviser, and I am discharging my responsibility. With Bhagwant Mann Ji, I have a "pyaara rishta" (nice bonding). ..He was my first friend when he joined Aam Aadmi Party in 2014."
