The political confrontation between the Aam Aadmi Party and its rebel leaders has reached a critical point, with both camps scheduled to meet President Droupadi Murmu on Tuesday. Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha, along with six other MPs who recently broke away from AAP and merged with the BJP, has been granted an appointment with the President at 10:40 am.

The rebel MPs are expected to raise concerns over the alleged misuse of state machinery by the Punjab government, accusing it of targeting them as part of a political vendetta. The MPs are likely to argue that administrative actions against them are politically motivated following their exit from AAP and subsequent alignment with the BJP.

On the other side, the AAP leadership has approached the Rajya Sabha Secretariat, questioning the defection and seeking action against the MPs. AAP leaders have publicly labeled the rebels as 'traitors of Punjab,' intensifying the political rhetoric. Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann has also sought time with President Murmu regarding the issue, and has been granted permission for a meeting at 12 pm on Tuesday.

The proposed interactions between the President and the two camps are expected to raise concerns, including accountability and the broader issue of the mandate of the people of Punjab. The situation is further complicated by reports of FIRs registered against AAP leaders, including Rajya Sabha MP Sandeep Pathak, who has denied receiving any official communication regarding the cases.

As the political row escalates, the potential implications for the stability of the Punjab government and the national political landscape are significant. The meetings with President Murmu may provide a glimpse into the future course of actions, but it is clear that the confrontation between AAP and its rebel MPs will continue to dominate the headlines in the coming days. The situation demands close attention, as the power dynamics between AAP and BJP continue to shift, potentially affecting the broader political landscape of India.
