Cautioning AAP's senior leadership over infighting, party MP Dharamvira Gandhi today said they have "no right" to betray aspirations of the people and the party is bound to be "dumped into garbage of history" if the members "act and play petty".

Gandhi, AAP's Patiala MP, stressed that striking a balance between "principles and pragmatism" would play a decisive role in chalking out the future of the party and asked its volunteers to stop being mere "followers".

"I warn all leaders, however big, and grass root volunteers of AAP, however small, that we have no right to betray the aspirations and faith, reposed in AAP by billions of poor and frustrated Indians, on flimsy grounds and petty resolvable differences.

"Can we really strike a balance between principles and pragmatism is the real bone of contention and the key question today. A correct position on this issue will play a decisive role in deciding the future of AAP, and the people of this country," he wrote in a Facebook post.
