Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha expressed joy while sharing pictures of affordable food canteens at Kolkata and Chennai airports on Friday.

In a post on X, Raghav said, "A small spark can light up the darkest skies…first Kolkata, now Chennai!"

Raghav said he was glad to see affordable food canteens being set up at airports.

"Grateful to everyone who supported my demand for affordable food and drinks at airports. Congratulations to each one of you - every drop together makes the ocean rise," he said.

Asking people to keep sending suggestions, the AAP MP said, "I shall continue to raise issues of public interest."

With the post, he also shared a clip of him raising the issue of food items being overcharged at airports in Parliament.

In the clip, he claimed that a normal water bottle that sells at Rs 20 at stores, the same water bottle sells at Rs 100 at airports. Moreover, he says the passengers avoid eating at airports because a tea costs them Rs 250 and a samosa is priced at Rs 350 at airport stalls.
