Vinod Binny not greedy for cabinet berth, says AAP leader Yogendra Yadav

Aam Aadmi Party leader Yogendra Yadav on Wednesday denied any rift within party and stressed that party MLA Vinod Kumar Binny is not greedy of any post, and added that the MLA from Laxmi Nagar has stood by the party when there was no one by our side.

"Unfortunate that such an image about him (Vinod Kumar Binny) was formed that he is greedy for any post," Yadav told media here.

Earlier, Binny, who is reportedly miffed about his name being dropped from the list of probable cabinet ministers, , denied any rift within the party.

"I am not upset with the party. There is no rift within the party," Binny told media here.

"I gave a statement yesterday that whatever media wants to ask, they can ask in our press conference tomorrow. This statement has been represented in other way. There is no rift," he said.

"I left early because I had to go for a reception. There are many other responsibilities. They might have chosen me for some other responsibility. I don't want to be a minister," he added.

Earlier, reports suggetsed that Binny was upset over the party's decision not to include him in the state cabinet.

Kejriwal on Tuesday held consultations on government formation and the party named its ministers.

The AAP sent the names of six ministers - Manish Sisodia, Saurabh Bhardwaj, Somnath Bharti, Rakhi Birla, Satyendra Jain and Girish Soni to Lt Governor Najeeb Jung.

The AAP staked claim to form the government in Delhi after the BJP decided not to form the government.

The AAP had bagged 28 seats in the 70-member Delhi assembly. The BJP had emerged as the single largest party by winning 31 seats while the Congress had stood a poor third with eight seats.
