AAP MP Balbir Singh Seechewal has voiced his discontent following the defection of seven Rajya Sabha members from his party to the BJP, calling the move an act of betrayal.
Seechewal revealed that Vikramjit Singh Sahney, a fellow Rajya Sabha member from Punjab, approached him to join a new group called the 'Azaad group', intended to advocate for Punjab's concerns. However, he refused the proposal.
