New Delhi:
Aam Aadmi Party convenor Arvind Kejriwal and other leaders tried to convince Kumar Vishwas over Amanatullah Khan controversy on Tuesday. Kejriwal expressed confidence that they will get Vishwas convinced.
Earlier in the day, Aam Aadmi Party leader Kumar Vishwas on Tuesday addressed a press conference at his residence. Kumar Vishwas got emotional while speaking and said that he will be taking major decision this night.
Manish Sisodia said that Kumar Vishwas was called to PAC but he is commenting on television. He said that People very well know that who are going to get benefit out of this.
On April 30, Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal tried to quell speculations of a rift between him and Kumar Vishwas, days after the senior party leader differed with him over EVM tampering as the reason behind the AAP's recent poll defeats.
Party chief Kejriwal also warned party leaders against trying to create a divide between him and his "younger brother" Vishwas, after AAP's Okhla MLA Amanatullah Khan alleged earlier in the day that Vishwas was trying to "usurp" the AAP and that he harbours ambitions of leading the party.
