Nadda, 5 others take oath as RS members
Five others who also took oath as members of the Rajya Sabha today are Ashokrao Shankarrao Chavan, Chunnilal Garasiya, Anil Kumar Yadav Mandadi, Sushmita Dev and Mohammad Nadimul Haque.
Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) candidates ND Gupta, Sushil Gupta and Sanjay Singh were elected unopposed to the Rajya Sabha on Monday.
Three of them were given ‘Certificate of Election’ confirming their election to Rajya Sabha by Returning Officer Nidhi Srivastava.
Earlier, Congress had said that when the BJP-led central government and AAP were supporting ND Gupta’s candidature for the Rajya Sabha, then “who will reject the nomination”.
