Dear Convenor of Goa Unit
AAP,

News going on about the duo AAP dissident group Prashant Bushan and
Yogendra Yadav, who are  likely to form a new party, may not materialize as
the Kejriwal group is much stronger. Everyone says  Prashant Bushan cannot
be trusted and Yadav has been dragged unnecessary into this conflict.
Prashant Bushan is a  man behind to this whole controversy should leave
gracefully from the political carrier on April Fools Day.  Yadav must patch
up and go back to his parent organisation and work together to strengthen
its unity in the party to demolish corrupt forces in the country.
If this does not happen than AAP will be ruined and the country will be in
turmoil.

Bhushan, Yadav may form new party
PTI

Bhushan said though AAP's Political Affairs Committee and National
Executive decided against forming a government with Congress support again,
Kejriwal had continued his efforts either to get Congress support or to
"breakaway MLAs" from the party. Asked whether it became untenable to
continue in AAP, Bhushan said he cannot go along with Kejriwal and his
supporters.

"What they did on that day (March 28) was something which is not
pardonable," he said.

On future political course, Bhushan said the efforts would be to channelise
the positive energy of the volunteers.

New Delhi: Dissident AAP leaders Prashant Bhushan and Yogendra Yadav today
maintained suspense over their future plans but did not rule out forming a
political party after taking views of volunteers and well-wishers
supporting them.

Wrathful over the way Kejriwal was running the party, Bhushan said he and
Yadav will have detailed discussions with their supporters from across the
country at a meeting on April 14 which has been convened to channelise the
positive energy of those AAP members who "felt betrayed" by the current
leadership.

"It need not be a political party. But it could also be a political party
depending upon what they want and what happens. My personal opinion is that
we should right now concentrate on issues and movements rather than forming
a political party," Bhushan said. The lawyer, who had joined hands with
Kejriwal over 10 years back during the RTI movement, said he felt "very
sad" at the way he and Yadav were removed.

Expressing regret over supporting Kejriwal, Bhushan said the way the
National Council meeting on March 28 was conducted was "unpardonable".

Bhushan claimed that Kejriwal was very desperate to capture power in Delhi
after the Lok Sabha poll debacle and continued his efforts just before
dissolution of the Delhi Assembly in November last year. He said Kejriwal
even approached a social activist to speak to Rahul Gandhi to garner
Congress support.

"In November (2014), he approached Nikhil Dey and asked him to speak to
Rahul Gandhi as to get him to Congress support for government formation,"
Bhushan said. Dey could not be contacted for his comments.

Giving an account of the events that widened his rift with Kejriwal,
Bhushan said soliciting Congress support to form government again after Lok
Sabha polls, the decision not to contest assembly polls in Haryana and
selection of candidates for Delhi polls were some of the major contentious
issues.
