AAP's national executive is scheduled to meet on Wednesday to discuss the ongoing power struggle.

On Monday, Kejriwal's confidantes sharpened their attack against the troika of Shanti-Prashant Bhushan and Yogendra Yadav accusing them of hatching a conspiracy against the party chief.

The meeting on March 4 could end in edging out both Prashant Bhushan and Yogendra Yadav from the political affairs committee (PAC).

Yogendra Yadav, in a TV interview on Monday evening, stressed that Kejriwal was easily the tallest leader in AAP and there was no question of even thinking of removing him from the post of national convenor.

Meanwhile, in an interview to NDTV, Prashant Bhushan admitted that there had been a breakdown in communication between him and party convener Arvind Kejriwal.
