Journalist Nidhi Razdan on Thursday shared a light-hearted moment with AAP Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha after he announced his selection for the Global Leadership Program at Harvard Kennedy School.

Razdan, reflecting on her own past experience, shared a playful comment in response to Chadha’s announcement. In 2021, Razdan was scammed into believing she had been offered an associate professor role at Harvard University, an opportunity that turned out to be fake.

Drawing from this experience, Razdan posted on the social media platform X, saying, “Hi @raghav_chadha, this is not a bad suggestion. Take it from someone who knows."

Razdan’s comment came after a parody account had replied to Chadha’s post with the message, “Ache se email check kar le bhai," asking him to double-check his email.

The former TV anchor, in a witty follow-up, added, “And ironically many of you who mock me can’t tell the difference between a parody account and the real person."

Earlier today, Chadha had announced his invitation to the prestigious Harvard Kennedy School’s Global Leadership Program. The program, which runs from March 5 to 13, focuses on Global Leadership and Public Policy for the 21st Century.

“I am delighted to share that I’ve been selected by the prestigious Harvard University for its program on Global Leadership and Public Policy for the 21st Century – at Harvard Kennedy School @Kennedy_School in Boston, USA," Chadha had posted.

In a follow-up to Razdan’s post, Chadha responded, saying, “Turns out, the email was genuine! Excited to begin this journey of learning! And to those asking who paid for it – I appreciate you holding me accountable – it’s a fully-funded program."
