Aam Aadmi Party’s youth leader Raghav Chadha participated in the ‘NewsDeskReport youth-youth-for change’ conclave. During this time, he spoke on various aspects of his life, including his relationship, wedding, school journey and the challenges coming from CA to politics. Raghav’s marriage to Bollywood actress Parineeti Chopra has made a lot of headlines.
How was Raghav’s experience in Harvard Kennedy School?
‘AAP’ Sanshaj Raghav Chadha said that I had applied to study in Harvard Kennedy School in my student life many years ago. I got admission in Masters in Public Policy there and I wanted to study there for one and a half to two years. But at that time the Aam Aadmi Party was new and we were contesting many elections. So I withdrew the application. This was my incomplete dream. But this year, with the grace of God, I got a chance to go to Harvard Kennedy School and I got an opportunity to learn a lot.
‘This was a wonderful opportunity …’
Raghav Chadha said that young global leaders are selected every year by the World Economic Forum, which includes young high achievements from all over the world. Some of these people are selected for a public policy and global leadership program at Harvard Kennedy School. The event was attended by my fellow students like Mongolia and Members of Parliament of Malaysia, advisor to Barack Obama, Para Olympic Gold Medalist and Arsenal Football Player. Among our professors, top level persons like New Zealand’s former Prime Minister of New Zealand and Treasury Secretary of the President of the United States granted education. We got classes on various subjects like leadership, negotiation, artificial intelligence. This was a wonderful opportunity that gave me a chance to learn a lot.
When I was unmarried and enjoying life as a solo traveler, I used to think there was no need to get married. But when i I met Parineeti and we got married, so there was a new twist in my life. Now I think if the angel had got 5-10 years ago, we would be able to travel with a long and beautiful journey. With his coming in my life, I think there is a good twist in my life.
Raghav Chadha said that I feel stronger than being with the angel. There is no clash or ego clash between us. The angel is also at a high level in my field and I learn a lot from them. The experience of his public life helps me a lot. For example, if I have to give a speech on an important issue and I have a little fear or angel, I talk to the angel and she removes my concerns. His experience and knowledge helps me a lot.
