The accused is the mastermind of the Kaliachak incident in which seven judicial officers were gheraoed inside a BDO office for several hours on Wednesday night. He was nabbed when he was trying to board a flight to flee, according to the officials.

Saurabh Bhardwaj, former Delhi health minister, also raised a similar issue about how Chadha has been quite reluctant to be fearless of opponents. He said Chadha was not actively involved in taking up major issues and doesn’t speak against PM Modi, in a video posted on X.
