Vinod Kumar Binny likely to be expelled from Aam Aadmi Party
AAP's Political Affairs Committee (PAC) is meeting in the morning where a decision could be made. Delhi Chief Minister and AAP national convener Arvind Kejriwal had earlier said that if Binny was upset, he is welcome to leave the party.
Binny had responded to the show cause notice issued to him by AAP, and had asked the party to provide him with a copy of its constitution and also explain the clause under which he was being pulled up.
"He
has
asked
the
party
to
provide
him
with
a
copy
of
its
constitution
and
explain
the
clause
under
which
he
was
sent
the
show
cause
notice.
The
response
does
not
say
anything
further,"
AAP
spokesperson
Deepak
Vajpayee
had
said.

today
AAP

notice
to
Binny
after

government.
"Binny is a senior member of the party. He was also a member of the screening committee and it is surprising that he is not aware of this clause. The constitution is readily available on the party website," Vajpayee had said in his reaction to Binny's demands.
Kejriwal earlier said Binny was welcome to leave the party
AAP had yesterday issued a show cause notice to the Laxmi Nagar MLA after he attacked the party leadership and the Delhi government. The notice said that the press conference held by Binny had tarnished the image of the party and violated the code of conduct under Section 6(1)(a) of the AAP constitution.
When contacted, Binny said he had done nothing which went against the party.
"I have not said anything against the party but have raised issues concerning the people of Delhi. I have asked them to send me a copy of the (AAP) constitution and also explain to me the clauses under which the notice was sent to me," he had said.
