Suspended Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MP Harinder Singh Khalsa on Saturday termed the ousting of Sucha Singh Chhotepur as the AAP's Punjab convener a "conspiracy", and alleged it was done to clear the decks for Arvind Kejriwal to become the Punjab Chief Minister after 2017 assembly polls.

"AAP wants to make Kejriwal as CM of Punjab so they are paving way for the same. In Delhi, Kejriwal does not have the power even equal to a Mayor," he added.

Khalsa accused the AAP of minting money by selling tickets at a very high price and said the party was unlikely to win even 25 seats in the forthcoming polls.
