Press Trust of India  |  New Delhi 

AAP's unit convenor Dilip Pandey resigned today over the party's drubbing in the MCD polls.

The party came a distant second, winning only 48 out of 272 wards.



"I have resigned from d post of Convenor, conveyed to National Convenor @ArvindKejriwal to give this responsibility to someone else (sic)," Pandey tweeted.

Pandey, a crucial cog in the party's machinery, was overseeing MCD campaign and strategy along with AAP's in-charge Ashish Talwar.

Two days before the poll results, Pandey had expressed apprehension that the MCD poll could be "rigged" and the ground for it was being prepared by "floating" exit polls predicting a sweep.
