Aam Admi Party has distanced itself from the views of an executive member of the party's state team in which he has expressed solidarity with Yogendra Yadav and Prashant Bhushan who were removed as the party's PAC recently.
The party's state unit in a release said that the views expressed by Rajesh Parikh were his personal and the state unit was with the party's official stand of removing the two leaders from PAC.
"The party's state unit is with Arvind Kejriwal and does not approve the views expressed by Parikh, which are his personal and not the views of the party," AAP spokesperson Mulkraj said.
Yesterday, Parikh had reportedly stated that the removal of Yadav and Bhushan was wrong, and it was "one man's" decision.
