The Aam Aadmi Party has expelled rebel leaders Prashant Bhushan, Yogendra Yadav and two others for anti-party activities and gross indiscipline, two days after issuing a show-cause notice to them. The decision to sack them from the party was taken by the national disciplinary committee last night which said as it was not satisfied with the response it got to the show-cause notice.
Earlier, Prashant Bhushan and Yogendra Yadav had accused party chief Arvind Kejriwal of gross violation of its constitution and attacked two members for accepting donations from dubious firms. Responding to the show-cause notices issued by AAP’s National Disciplinary Committee, Mr Bhushan and Mr Yadav questioned its locus standi for seeking their reply, saying the panel was formed after the illegal and unconstitutional meeting of the party’s National Council on March 28th.
