Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal is adamant about ensuring the removal of senior Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leaders Prashant Bhushan and Yogendra Yadav from his party's National Executive, as per sources.

Kejriwal has also refused to take any call related to party work as long as the duo are in the party, the sources add.

The AAP's Parliamentary Action Committee, meanwhile, is scheduled to meet this evening at Kejriwal's residence, where a resolution will be moved in the National Council to remove Yadav and Bhushan.

AAP leader Ashok Talwar had earlier written a letter to Kejriwal, hinting at a 'conspiracy' against the political organization and urged him to take action against for what he termed as 'anti-party' activity.

Senior AAP leader Shanti Bhushan had, however, refuted reports of calling a meeting of certain members of the party's national council a day before its official meet on March 28.
