AAP crisis deepens as Manish Sisodia rejects Khaira & Co’s demand

Hindustan Times  

Delhi deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia The crisis in the Aam Aadmi Party ’s Punjab unit deepened on Sunday after Delhi deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia rejected nine party MLAs’ demand to take back the decision to remove Bholath legislator Sukhpal Singh Khaira as the leader of opposition in the Vidhan Sabha. The defiant Punjab legislators, led by Khaira, in whose place Dirba MLA Harpal Singh Cheema has been made the new LoP, pressed for the latter’s immediate removal, calling the procedure adopted by the central leadership “undemocratic and unacceptable”. Sisodia, who is in-charge of party affairs in Punjab, categorically ruled out any rethink and asked the MLAs not to go ahead with the ‘volunteers’ convention’, widely seen as a “show of strength” of the Khaira group, to be held in Bathinda on August 2. Delhi leaders Durgesh Pathak, who was earlier co-in-charge of party affairs in Punjab, and former Rajouri Garden MLA Jarnail Singh were also present.
