New Delhi: A day after a deep divide between AAP’s top leaders came to the fore, its chief Arvind Kejriwal yesterday admitted it needed “restructuring” and said the “differences” had been resolved.
The party, on the second day of its national executive meet here, rejected the resignation of Naveen Jaihind and Yogendra Yadav who written a letter saying it has “fallen prey to the personality cult”.
The resignation of Shazia Ilmi, who quit the party last month over it being run by a “crony clique”, was also not accepted.
“All things are going smooth and differences are resolved. We are discussing organisational structure. Expansion of PAC could be possible,” Kejriwal said here. Political Affairs Committee is AAP’s highest decision-making body.
Besides describing Yadav as a “valued colleague,” AAP convener Kejriwal said the party “will try to get Shazia back”.
“Yogendra Yadav has raised some important issues. All of us will work on it,” Kejriwal tweeted after meeting Yadav on the sidelines of the meet. “Yogendra Yadav is a very dear friend and a very valued colleague. Had long discussions with him...,” he added.
Another party leader Manish Sisodia said: “This was cleansing process. Discords are bound to happen in any party. Everything is fine now.”
