Rift in AAP top leadership

Reeling under electoral debacle, Aam Aadmi Party today appeared split down the middle with senior leader Yogendra Yadav attacking Arvind Kejriwal while the party initiated moves to bring back Shazia Ilmi who had quit criticising the "coterie" around Kejriwal.
The party leadership came under attack at a meeting of the National Executive, attended by party leaders from across the country, to discuss the future course of action after its rout.
Rift in the party's top leadership emerged after exchange of letters between Yogendra Yadav and Manish Sisodia.
Yadav, known to be a key strategist, had written to the Political Affairs Committee after his resignation from it charging the party with "falling prey to personality cult" and that the decisions taken reflected the wishes of the party chief. He described Kejriwal as a supremo.

Interestingly, senior party leader and Kejriwal's close aide Manish Sisodia hit back at Yadav accusing him of targeting Kejriwal and making internal matters public.
"When you wanted to become Haryana in-charge and wanted to be projected as the CM candidate despite opposition from other PAC members, Arvind backed you. At that time, he was democratic (for you). The state of affairs of the party in Haryana is in a shambles," Sisodia said.
