Disclosing this here today a spokesperson of the Chief Minister’s Office said that the Chief Minister cleared the file to this regard here on Monday.

The young political leader had earlier served as Financial Advisor to Delhi Finance Minister Manish Sisodia in the Aam Aadmi Party government. Though he drew a nominal salary of only 1 rupee from Delhi government but he is credited with plugging the pilferages of the revenue and cutting down corruption. His strenuous efforts helped in making Delhi a Revenue surplus state and thereby putting it on the trajectory of high economic growth.

Hailing from Jalandhar, as his family moved to Delhi for work opportunities a few decades ago, Raghav Chadha had remained firmly connected with his roots and acted as a catalyst in revamping Delhi's Punjabi Academy thereby promoting the Punjabi language and culture in the national capital. In the new role Raghav Chadha will shoulder the responsibility of overseeing the conception and implementation of pro-people initiatives of the AAP government in Punjab and advise the government on matters of Finance accordingly. His sound financial knowledge and prudence is likely to be a boon for the debt-ridden Punjab, which is currently reeling under an extreme financial crunch, as he is expected to play an essential role in financial planning and making Punjab Debt free.
