Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Ashok Talwar on Wednesday alleged that attempts are being made to harm the party ahead of its National Council (NC) meeting on March 28.

"I wrote to Arvind bhai informing him that attempts are being made to harm the party ahead of the National Council meeting on March 28. They are planning to organise a meeting before National Council meeting. When there is a NC meeting scheduled, then what is the need for a meeting before that? I am getting phone calls from several people, I do not know who these people are. They are saying that there is no democracy in the party," Talwar told ANI.

"I suspect that some leaders of the party could also have been involved in this along with the people from other parties,' he added.

Meanwhile, AAP spokesperson Ashutosh said that several other party members have also raised this issue and the matter would be taken up for discussion during the NC meeting.

"We will look into the letter, the party will try to make him understand and feel at ease. A lot of members have raised this issue, we have told them that they are free to raise this issue on the March 28," he said.

Talwar had earlier written a letter to party chief and Delhi Chief MinisterArvind Kejriwal, hinting at a 'conspiracy' against the political organisation. He had also urged Kejriwal to take action against what he termed 'anti-party' activity.
