The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), on Monday, disbanded its entire Jammu and Kashmir unit. The development came in the wake of possible Assembly elections in the union territory. Sources said that AAP’s central leadership is preparing for polls that may take after the completion of the ongoing electoral revision.
“While Aam Aadmi Party is expanding fast all over the country, its organization must be expanded accordingly. Considering that AAP (Jammu and Kashmir) current organization is being dissolved with immediate effect. New organization structure and positions for AAP (J&K) will be announced soon,” the party announced in a statement.
Earlier on Saturday, J&KÂ Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha said elections in the Union territory will “surely” take place after the completion of the ongoing electoral revision and that the restoration of statehood would follow at an “appropriate time”.
