Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Yogendra Yadav on Wednesday verbally offered to resign from the party's Political Action Committee (AAP), according to reports.
AAP's National Convenor and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal had earlier resigned as the convener, saying he was not in a position to do justice to both posts, including that of chief minister.
Kejriwal's resignation came hours before the AAP's national executive meeting.
The AAP is embroiled in an ugly internal strife barely a month after forming a majority government in national capital New Delhi.
There was unconfirmed speculation that the duo of Bhushan and Yadav may be eased out of the national executive, which is the AAP's top policy body.
There are reports of a majority of the national executive being in favour of the ouster of the duo, as they feel both have brought a bad name to the AAP by talking about the lack of so-called internal democracy in the party.

Meanwhile, the AAP announced that Kejriwal is unlikely to attend today's National Executive meeting, as he is flying to Bengaluru for naturopathy treatment for ten days to recover from diabetes and a consistent bout of cough.
In Kejriwal's absence, Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia will officiate as chief minister.
It is still in the realm of speculation whether Prashant Bhushan has also offered to resign from the PAC of the AAP.
