New Delhi: The fissure in the AAP on Tuesday widened with senior party leader Kumar Vishwas threatening to quit over the attacks on him by a “coterie” surrounding Arvind Kejriwal.
The party fielded deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia to contain the damage who retaliated against Vishwas saying people are aware that his comments would help a “particular party”.
The flurry of developments, a day after Okhla MLA Amanatullah Khan resigned from the party’s political affairs committee over a spat with Vishwas, plunged the poll-battered party into turmoil, almost reminiscent of the 2015 bitter public spat involving Yogendra Yadav and Prashant Bhushan.
Amid murmurs that he wants to head the party, poet-turned-politician Vishwas said he harbours no ambitions to become Chief Minister, deputy Chief Minister or AAP national convener.
