AAP MLAs write to Kejriwal: Sack Yadav and Bhushan to set an example

March 11, 2015 10:09

The rift within the Aam Aadmi Party is widening with each passing day and now MLAs have written to party leadership seeking removal of senior leaders Yogendra Yadav and Prashant Bhushan to set an example for others.

The letter mentions the charges against the two leaders, which include 'anti-party activities', 'making adverse statements in the media', 'conspiracy to tarnish the image of Arvind Kejriwal and remove him' among others.

Kapil Mishra, AAP MLA from Karwal Nagar, has also demanded Yogendra Yadav and Prashant Bhushan's sacking from the party. He said, "We will not tolerate anyone trying to break our agenda no matter who it is. We want Yogendra Yadav, Prashant Bhushan and Shanti Bhushan to be expelled from the party."

He also refuted claims that AAP MLAs were being forced to sign a letter against Yadav and Bhushan. Everyone is signing the letter on their own accord, no one refused until now, Mishra added.
