BJP leader Raghav Chadha explained the reasons behind his decision to part ways with his party, citing a “toxic work environment” and lack of internal democracy. Chadha said he dedicated over 15 years of his life to the party after leaving a successful career as a chartered accountant, but felt the organisation had changed over time. He alleged that leaders were being prevented from speaking and working freely, and that the party was now controlled by “corrupt and compromised” individuals.
