New Delhi, September 6: Disgruntled Aam Aadmi Party legislator Alka Lamba on Friday announced to resign from the party.

“The time has come to say “Good Bye” to #AAP and to resign from the primary membership of the Party.

The past 6years journey was a great learning for me”, the Chandni Chowk MLA said in a tweet.

Lamba had been at odds with the party for some time.

Lamba had many times sought accountability from AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal on the crushing defeat of the party in Lok Sabha polls, following which she was removed from the official WhatsApp group of the party lawmakers. AAP did not win any of the seven parliamentary seats in Delhi.

Hinting at Kejriwal, she said action should be taken against those who took all decisions “sitting in a closed room”.

Alka Lamba won the Chandni Chowk assembly seat for the first time in 2013. Before joining Kejriwal, Lamba was part of the Congress women wing.
