In a striking display of reverence amid political fervor, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha deftly sidestepped questions on the BJP-led NDA’s landslide victory in Bihar’s recent assembly elections during a visit to Ujjain’s iconic Mahakaleshwar Temple. The seasoned parliamentarian invoked the sanctity of the shrine to redirect the conversation, signaling a brief truce in the cutthroat world of politics.”
Don’t ask me political questions in the Bhagwan Mahakal’s darbar… The winter session of Parliament is about to begin, in which there will be a lot of political discussion,” Chadha remarked to reporters outside the revered Jyotirlinga temple on Sunday morning.
His response came just days after the Election Commission declared results on November 14, showing the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) sweeping over 200 seats in the 243-member Bihar Assembly—a thumping mandate that propelled Chief Minister Nitish Kumar toward a record ninth term and dashed the opposition Mahagathbandhan’s hopes.
The AAP, part of the INDIA bloc, had backed the RJD-Congress alliance, making Chadha’s temple visit a poignant moment of restraint in the face of electoral setback.Chadha’s temple detour quickly pivoted to a more somber national crisis: the devastating car bomb explosion near Delhi’s historic Red Fort on November 10, which has claimed 13 lives and injured over 30 others in what authorities have officially branded a “heinous terror incident” orchestrated by “anti-national forces.”

The blast, which ripped through evening rush-hour traffic outside the UNESCO World Heritage site, hurled debris and ignited vehicles, leaving a trail of charred wreckage and profound grief in Old Delhi’s bustling bazaars.”It is an extremely painful incident. The whole country is standing with the government. The government should take strict action,” Chadha asserted, his voice laced with resolve.
“Those people who harbour plans to conspire against the country and carry out such conspiracies, the government should punish them in such a way that it sets an example for future generations, and if any person even thinks of acting against India, their soul trembles at the mere thought of that punishment.”The National Investigation Agency (NIA), spearheading the probe under the stringent Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, has detained over a dozen suspects, including a network of radicalized doctors from Faridabad linked to Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammed operatives.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, addressing the nation on November 11, vowed that “nobody responsible will be spared,” while Home Minister Amit Shah chaired high-level security meetings to bolster vigilance across the National Capital Region.
Compensation of ₹10 lakh per deceased family has been announced, but the incident has reignited debates on urban security lapses and the shadowy rise of “white-collar” terror modules.Chadha’s balanced tone—unifying in tragedy while teasing parliamentary fireworks—mirrors a broader opposition sentiment: solidarity against terror, but unrelenting scrutiny on governance.
As the winter session looms from November 25, Bihar’s verdict and Delhi’s wounds promise a stormy legislative agenda, with AAP positioning itself as a vocal advocate for justice and accountability.In Ujjain’s spiritual embrace, Chadha’s words echoed a rare consensus: India’s battles, whether electoral or existential, demand unwavering resolve.
