Ousted Aam Aadmi Party leader Prashant Bhushan has indicated he might form a new political party after he and Yogendra Yadav were expelled from the national executive.

According to reports, all the volunteers will meet on April 14 to take a concrete decision over the matter.

The meeting is expected to be attended by several members of the party’s national executive and national council.

Earlier on Saturday,  Bhushan and Yadav were ousted from the party’s national executive. Out of the 311 national executive members present in the national council meeting, an overwhelming 247 members voted against Bhushan and Yadav while just 8 votes were cast in their favour.

The party also removed Anand Kumar and Ajit Jha from the national executive.

The party’s internal rift had widened after Yadav and Bhushan were accused of working for the party’s defeat during the Delhi Assembly polls last month.
