Expelled AAP leaders Yogendra Yadav, Anand Kumar & others plan countrywide "Swaraj Samvads"

NEW DELHI: Expelled AAP leaders Yogendra Yadav, Anand Kumar and others are planning countrywide " Swaraj Samvads", beginning with Bangalore and Guwahati, in the next ten days ahead of possibly forming a new party.

According to Yadav, apart from a couple of northeastern states, the rest will host at least one Swaraj meet over the next two months. Maharashtra, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh are slated to hold multiple meetings. " I am attending the Bangalore and Guwahati Samvads on April 29 and May 1. Nearly 35 Swaraj Samvads will be held over the next two months. In Haryana, these will be held in every district. In UP, about 4-5 and some in Maharashtra, too, Yadav told ET.

"A detailed schedule will be announed in the next couple of days," he added. "We are searching for alternative politics. That is our motto; that is what Samvad is all about," he told reporters on Tuesday evening on the rebel group's plans and idea behind organising countrywide meets.

Yadav repeated that the possibility of forming a new political party cannot be ruled out, but the focus was on getting "three kinds of energies" together.

He said that the three energies will include India Against Corruption volunteers who did not join AAP.
