New Delhi, July 8: The list of aggrieved members of Aam Aadmi Party seems to be growing at a quick pace. Months after the expulsion of co-founders Yogender Yadav and Prashant Bhushan, the party is now facing the irk of its parliamentarians. Three out of four of its MPs, all of whom belonging to the state of Punjab have expressed their anguish against the party’s top leadership, accusing the Kejriwal coterie of not taking their views into account while formulating plans for the state.

According to Patiala MP, Dr. Dharamvira Gandhi, “In the new setup of the party in Punjab, MPs and our workers were not consulted. This is disappointing.” Dr.Gandhi had earlier too criticised the party for the undemocratic manner adopted to remove Yogender Yadav and Prashant Bhushan. Dr.Gandhi along with Sadhu Singh, MP form Faridkote and Harinder Singh Khalsa, MP from Fatehgarh Sahib have aired their grievance in the public.

On its part, AAP has not taken any measure to pacify the aggrieved lawmakers. The party instead, appears at loggerhead with the dissident members. Party convenor and Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal has ordered the parliamentarians to submit their work report by Wednesday evening to the party for assessment. The party has accused the three lawmakers of rarely visiting their constituencies, thus causing a breach between the party and the people.

Addressing the media over the reports of crisis, AAP MP from Sangrur, Bhagwant Mann tried to downplay the matter saying, “Disagreements will be sorted out amiably within the party. It is a new party. Such things are expected,” said party’s star campaigner, Mann. Being the sole AAP MP to be considered close to the Kejriwal camp, Mann has assured absolute trust in the party’s top leadership.

If the Punjab unit splits up, the party will suffer a huge setback. AAP had made successful inroads in the state in the 2014 Lok Sabha polls and has already declared its aim to contest in the 2017 assembly elections. However, if the recent controversies are to be considered, the party is set to face a major organizational blow. On Tuesday, citing lack of internal democracy and deviation of party from its core principles, the Bihar unit of AAP split away forming a new political front, Aam Aadmi (United). If the rising dissent is not checked, the Aam Aadmi Party which aspires to be a nation-wide political force might only be restricted to the semi-state region of Delhi.
