Expelled AAP leader Yogendra Yadav on Wednesday said he has not received any official communication from the party regarding his expulsion, and still considers himself to be a part of the ‘movement’.

“As of now, it is more than a week since the party said in a press release that Prashant Bhushanji, I, Anand Kumar and Ajit Jha have been expelled from the membership of the party. As of now, I have not received any communication,” he told reporters here.

Speaking on the sidelines of a Swaraj Samwad event organised here, he said: “There is no order. There was a claim to be a disciplinary committee which was supposed to investigate our cases, they have not given any order, they have not spelt out any reason. I have learnt it from the media that I have been expelled. That’s all I know,” he added.

Cracking the whip, the AAP had on April 20 expelled the four rebel leaders for anti-party activities and “gross indiscipline”.

Asked whether he still considered himself to be a part of AAP, Yadav said: “I consider myself as a part of a movement. When I was office bearer of the party…even then I used to say that this is not a party, it’s a movement, and a movement which has temporarily taken the shape of a party. I am very much with that party, with that idea of the party, I am very much with that movement and Swaraj Abhiyan is nothing but an attempt to relive and to reignite those hopes which were associated with what became the Aam Aadmi Party.”

Asked whether an attempt would be made to link Anna Hazare with Swaraj Abhiyan, Yadav said: “We have repeatedly said that any democratic movement cannot be personality centred. This stands even for Hazare, Arvind Kejriwal and for me as well.”

On the controversy regarding the alleged fake law certificate of Delhi Law Minister Jitender Singh Tomar, Yadav said: “As you know this was one of the demands we had made to the party.

“We had said that four things need to be investigated and Jitender Singh Tomar’s case was one of them which we wanted the party to investigate about two months ago. Had the party done the investigation then, I guess we would not have been in this embarrassing situation now.”
