Disgruntled Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Kumar Vishwas has hit put at the party bigwigs over exclusion of his name from the list of three nominees for the Rajya Sabha.
Appearing in Rajat Sharma's show 'Aap Ki Adalat', Kumar Vishwas said: "AAP does not belong to a coterie (mandali) of two or three persons, the party belongs to lakhs of workers who are there outside."
Three Rajya Sabha seats from Delhi will fall vacant by the end of this month when the tenure of Congress members Janardhan Dwivedi, Parvez Hashmi and Karan Singh end.
This comes a day after Kumar Vishwas alleged that he was punished for saying the truth about AAP supremo Kejriwal's decisions and that he accepted his "martyrdom".
The poet-politician did not react to Rai's allegations. Vishwas had yesterday alleged that he was punished for saying the truth about Kejriwal's decisions and that he accepted his "martyrdom".
The disgruntled AAP leader also accused Kejriwal of planning his political execution since long.
Accusing unknown AAP party members of being insecure of Kumar Vishwas' stature, Patel said if he is not nominated, the party will miss an opportunity.
Elections to three Rajya Sabha seats from Delhi would be held on January 16. The AAP, which enjoys a brute majority in the 70-member Delhi Assembly, is all set to win all the three seats.
The party also distanced itself from Kumar Vishwas' assertion against caste-based reservations, and expressed support for quota in education, jobs and in elections.
AAP leader Kumar Vishwas on Sunday said the party was holding dialogue with those who left the outfit, including Prashant Bhushan and Yogendra Yadav, to facilitate their return to the party fold.

Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Kumar Vishwas on Sunday said he never aspired to sit on a throne or occupy it, a day after he hit out at "palace politics" in the party
The AAP crisis deepened further on Saturday with its leader Kumar Vishwas hitting out at its "palace politics", even as posters came up outside its headquarters dubbing him a "friend of the BJP" and a "traitor"
Around two dozen posters attacking Kumar as “BJP’s close friend” and “ traitor” were found on the wall outside the party office at 206, Rouse Avenue.
Vishwas was last month made Rajasthan in-charge of the AAP after he threatened to quit the party over attacks on him by suspended legislator Amanatullah Khan, who termed his as a "BJP agent".
Vishwas demanded that Delhi minister Satyendar Jain explain his position on the charge made by Mishra that he had handed over Rs two crore to Kejriwal.
Vishwas said that he has known Kejriwal for 12 years and even his ‘opponents cannot imagine him taking a bribe’.
Vishwas added that if Mishra had any proof of corruption against Jain or Kejriwal - or any other party leader including him - he should come forward with it at the party forum.
