Damania takes U-turn on resignation; Maharashtra AAP revamp soon

Mumbai: Maharashtra leaders of Aam Aadmi Party Anjali Damania and Preeti Menon resigned from the party but hours later took a U-turn today on being assured of the formation of a new state executive that

“Relation between the party leaders and volunteers had recently soured. Complaints against the behaviour of committee members by AAP workers and lack of communication at various levels were irritating them.”

“Anjali wanted petty fights between the party leadership and volunteers to stop,” Gandhi, who had unsuccessfully contested the Lok Sabha polls from North West Mumbai, said.

Gandhi said the state unit of the fledgling outfit, which has been hit by high-profile exits after a poor showing in the just-held parliamentary polls, will be revamped.

“We will form a grievance cell where any party volunteer or leader can register their complaints and their problems will be looked into”, he said.

There will also be an interaction between the party leadership and volunteers every week and all decisions will be taken in a transparent manner, the AAP leader said.

Despite repeated attempts, Damania remained unavailable for comment.
