Yadav's comments came after AAP leader Mayank Gandhi wrote a blog supporting him and Bhushan while another leader, Anjali Damania, backed Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal. "I do not think people are supporting me or are against me. The party workers, who have high hopes, want such things to end," Yadav said.

Playing down the recent rift in the party, Yadav said, "We have not been expelled (from the party). I am just been removed from the PAC. We are still part of the rashtriya karyakarini (national executive)."

Yadav added that he would soon write a book and "analyse recent events".
