Will meet soon, replies Kejriwal to Bhushan

New Delhi: A day after Yogendra Yadav and Prashant Bhushan extended an olive branch to Arvind Kejriwal by seeking a meeting, the AAP chief on Tuesday responded, saying “will meet soon”.

An SMS was sent to Mr. Kejriwal on Monday morning on behalf of both the leaders.

In another sign of reconciliation between the two warring factions, senior leaders from the Kejriwal camp met Mr. Yadav late Monday and held discussions over several contentious issues, hours after the Delhi Chief Minister’s return from Bengaluru.

Both the camps have termed the discussions as “positive”.

Party sources said AAP leaders Sanjay Singh and Kumar Vishwas, Ashutosh and Ashish Khetan met Mr. Yadav late Monday and the discussions continued until 3 a.m.

“We were bothered with what was happening in the party for the past few days. We started talks with Yogendra (Yadav) bhai. The start was good,” Sanjay Singh tweeted.

Sources close to Mr. Yadav too echoed similar sentiments.

“There is peace after a three-hour sleep. There is peace now. We will be successful,” party leader Kumar Vishwas tweeted on Tuesday morning.

Over the past few weeks, the AAP had been embroiled in internal turmoil with leaders from both the camps making accusations and levelling allegations against each other.
