AAP national council meet likely to remove Yadav, Bhushan
With hopes for a possible reconciliation drifting away, a split in the party looked almost certain on Friday after a series of press conferences held by rival camps led by rebel leaders Yogendra Yadav and Prashant Bhushan on one side and party chief Arvind Kejriwal on the other.
Yadav and Bhushan fired the salvo first calling Kejriwal a 'dictator surrounded by yest men.' Then Kejriwal camp hit back accusing the rebel duo of taking the party to a strait.
In an audio record produced by the rebel camp Kejriwal was heard purportedly using expletives against Yadav and Bhushan and even threatening to form a new party.
Reacting to this, Bhushan said, "I did not know Kejriwal has this much poison in his mind for me and Yogendra Yadav. This party was not supposed to be one man party."
However, the Kejriwal camp claimed that "private" conversations of leaders were being "recorded" for the past nine months to "blackmail" the leadership.
