Kumar Vishwas, a co-founder of AAP, is staying within the fold after it appeared inevitable that he would be cast out for criticising Arvind Kejriwal.
Vishwas—a charismatic figure with a piquant turn of phrase, confined to the periphery of the party in part because he was thought to harbour BJP-RSS sympathies—had alleged internal corruption in a video released after AAP’s election defeats. One AAP MLA, Amanatullah Khan, even publicly accused Vishwas of wanting to break up the party. Khan has resigned from AAP’s political action committee as a result, but is sticking by his words. He has since been suspended from the party as Kejriwal and Delhi’s’deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia, desperate to give the party a fillip, kept Vishwas onside. He will also now lead the party’s Rajasthan poll effort.
