Kejriwal fails to handle party leaders?

Aam Admi Party has bounced back to power winning 67 seats out of 70 in the Assembly. It is a strong indication that people still relying Aravind Kejriwal, his party and hopeful about his government performance. But, quite unusually his party struck with internal fights like any typical political party. Arvind Kejriwal says that he is quite disturbed to see the ongoing war between his party leaders.

Being the convener of his party, generally anyone expects that he will take control of the party and settle the disputes before it damages the party reputation. But, he resigned to his convener post stating that it becomes very difficult for him to handle party and the government simultaneously. He sent his resignation letter to the party national governing body today. In his resignation letter, he writes that he is quitting the party convener post to enable himself concentrate on the government administration activities. However, the actual reason for quitting the party position is the internal fight by its two senior leaders Yogendra Yadav and Prashanth Bhushan.

Arvind Kejriwal has proved that he has extraordinary skills in communicating with the people by winning the elections. But, interestingly, he fails to communicate with his party leaders and in making them fall in line with party discipline. His decision to quit the party leadership is clearly hinting the same. This kind of decision can’t be seen in any other political party in the country. However, the AAP governing body that met today at New Delhi has rejected Arvind Kejriwal’s resignation letter. The members of the meeting opine that he is quite capable to handle the party and the government simultaneously. But, if the party fails to settle its internal problems and Arvind Kejriwal ignores them, it may lead to a split in the party.
