Atishi, set to become Delhi CM, was sacked by AAP as spokesperson in 2015

Atishi, who is set to become Delhi CM after Arvind Kejriwal, was removed as spokesperson by AAP in 2015. This happened after AAP founding members Prashant Bhushan and Yogendra Yadav were expelled and it was believed she would side with them. However, in a subsequent letter, Atishi criticised her mentors for not trying to iron out differences.
