New Delhi, March 21 (IANS) Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Friday expelled two leaders as they allegedly tried to provide party tickets for monetary consideration.

Aam Aadmi Party leader Arvind Kejriwal appealed to ticket seekers that they should not give money to any party member who have assured them of providing tickets.

"Two members, Aruna Singh (convener of Awadh zone) and Ashok Kumar (treasurer, Hardoi) have been suspended from the party membership as they were found to be indulging in providing party tickets on the pretext of money (sic)," Kejriwal told media persons.

The AAP leader also appealed to the media to inform the party about any such activity and conduct sting operations.
