Part of it is true, but the way it was said gives a wrong picture.

    ““As far as the impeachment of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar is concerned, we have already signed it. If an impeachment motion against Gyanesh Kumar is brought in Parliament and any action is taken, we will join hands with all the opposition parties and fight this battle together.””

    130 Lok Sabha and 63 Rajya Sabha MPs

    What the evidence shows

    What they said

    AAP MP Sanjay Singh said AAP has already signed an impeachment motion against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, and that if such a motion is brought in Parliament the party will join hands with all opposition parties.

    What is actually true

    130 Lok Sabha and 63 Rajya Sabha MPs

    signed notices to remove CEC, official bulletins, April 2026

    ddnews.gov.in

    Parliament's official bulletins said the Rajya Sabha Chairman and Lok Sabha Speaker refused to admit the impeachment notices against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar on 6 April 2026. The notices were signed by 130 Lok Sabha members and 63 Rajya Sabha members, but they do not list signatories by party.

    • The Rajya Sabha Chairman and Lok Sabha Speaker rejected the impeachment motion notice against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. [2][14]
    • The Lok Sabha notice was signed by 130 members and the Rajya Sabha notice by 63 members. [2][5][14]
    • At least 193 opposition MPs signed the notice seeking the CEC's removal. [13]
    • The available parliamentary records do not identify AAP or its MPs among the signatories. [2][5][14]

    The record confirms that opposition MPs moved and signed impeachment notices against the CEC, so the general claim of an impeachment push is accurate. But the notices were rejected by both presiding officers, which the claim does not mention, and no source lists AAP as a signatory. The specific assertion that AAP has already signed is therefore not established by the record.

    Maharashtra unemployment rate, age 15+, PLFS 2023-24

    pib.gov.in

    The Ministry of Labour & Employment's Periodic Labour Force Survey data put Maharashtra's unemployment rate for persons aged 15 and above at 3.3% in 2023-24, down from 4.8% in 2017-18. The sources do not state an official count of 15–20 lakh unemployed youths for Maharashtra. Other reported figures include over 71 lakh youth registered as job-seekers with government employment offices in 2025 and 17.76 lakh applications for 17,471 police constable posts.

    • The Periodic Labour Force Survey reports Maharashtra's unemployment rate among persons aged 15 and above fell from 4.8% in 2017-18 to 3.3% in 2023-24. [2]
    • An unofficial data article says more than 71 lakh youth were registered as job-seekers with Maharashtra government employment offices in 2025. [6]
    • Maharashtra Police received 17.76 lakh applications for 17,471 constable posts, indicating a very large number of job applicants in the state. [8]

    The speaker's broad point about youth unemployment is consistent with evidence that large numbers of young people in Maharashtra are seeking work. But the specific figure of 15–20 lakh unemployed youths does not appear in official PLFS data, which report only unemployment rates for the state. The number may also understate the reported scale of youth job-seeking, since one data report gives over 71 lakh registered job-seekers.
