New Delhi, India: The Aam Aadmi Party’s (AAP) National Council (NC) meeting witnessed violence after Manish Sisodhia moved a resolution to oust Yogendra Yadav, Prashant Bhushan, Ajit Jha and Anand Kumar from Aam Aadmi Party’s National Council for alleged anti-party activities.

Earlier party convenor Arvind Kejriwal addressed the NC meeting for about 33 minutes and left the meeting saying that NC should decide if he or Yogendra Yadav, Prashant Bhushan, Ajit Jha and Anand Kumar should stay in party’s NC.

After Arvind Kejriwal left the meeting Gopal Rai asked participants to give their names if they wish to speak in the meeting. Meanwhile, Manish Sisodhia moved a resolution to oust Yogendra Yadav, Prashant Bhushan, Ajit Jha and Anand Kumar from Aam Aadmi Party’s National Council for alleged anti-party activities.

When certain members demanded that the other side should be given time to speak in the meeting, their voice was reportedly snubbed with violence.
