Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Monday dismissed reports of crisis within the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), saying everything is 'fine'.

The AAP had earlier on Sunday released a 45-minute video of Kejriwal's speech, a day after the removal of senior leaders Prashant Bhushan, Yogendra Yadav, Anand Kumar and Ajit Jha from the national executive.

In the speech, Kejriwal says "he was betrayed" and "knifed in the back", and ends with an appeal to the council to choose between them and him.

The supporters of Yadav and Bhushan have, however, reportedly alleged that the video was clearly edited.

Meanwhile, he also promised to solve Delhi's water issues taking inspiration from Singapore.

"We'll resolve issues related to water supply in Delhi just like Singapore resolves its water issues," he added.

Earlier, Kejriwal had accused the BJP government in Haryana of reducing the water supply to the national capital through the Munak Canal.

However, Haryana's Agriculture Minister Om Prakash Dhankhar denied Kejriwal's allegations, asserting that his state's supply of water to Delhi had not diminished. He further alleged that Delhi was 'wasting' the water supplied to it.
