The suspension is seen as a compromise after Vishwas had threatened to quit the party. The AAP has also set up a disciplinary committee to look into the statements made by Khan against Vishwas. Vishwas had accused Khan of being a “mask” and acting at the behest of a “coterie” surrounding Kejriwal. Kejriwal and Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia had visited the Ghaziabad residence of Vishwas late in the night to pacify him. The three, along with party leaders Sanjay Singh and Ashutosh, then went to the chief minister's residence.
