Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann will meet President Droupadi Murmu in New Delhi on Tuesday to present the Aam Aadmi Party’s case for recalling six Rajya Sabha MPs from the state who switched to the BJP last month.AAP MLAs, led by Mann, will travel to Delhi early Tuesday morning. The party has asked legislators to either assemble in Chandigarh for a bus journey or reach Delhi directly.While Mann had sought time for a joint meeting with all MLAs, the President has granted an audience only to him. The MLAs will wait outside the Rashtrapati Bhawan during the meeting. They are scheduled to have lunch later at Kapurthala House and return to Punjab by evening. Mann is expected to stay back in Delhi for a meeting with Union Minister Nitin Gadkari to discuss road projects.Earlier in the day, four of the rebel MPs—Raghav Chadha, Ashok Mittal, Rajinder Gupta and Sandeep Pathak—are also scheduled to meet the President. They are expected to raise allegations of “political vendetta” and personal harassment by the AAP government after merging with the BJP.
