Briefing the media about the other decisions, Rai said the AAP will contest the 2019 Lok Sabha elections with its full strength with an aim to defeat the 'Modi-Shah' combine.

"We will contest on all those seats where we can defeat the Modi-Shah duo," Rai said without giving details of the seats.

"The way the Modi-Shah are disturbing the fabric of democracy and trying to establish dictatorship is dangerous for the people."

The AAP will have a national council meeting on Saturday and will discuss all aspects of Lok Sabha election campaign, Rai said.

"The national council members and convenors from different states will take part in the meeting on Saturday," Rai said. The party will also decide on the number of seats it will contest and any possibility of alliance, Rai added.

Amid speculation that the party was planning to amend the AAP's constitution in order to allow Arvind Kejriwal to continue as the party's convener, Rai said, "There is no such agenda for the meeting".

According to AAP's constitution, no member can hold the same post as an office-bearer for more than two consecutive terms of three years each.

AAP was founded on November 26, 2012. Senior party officials said Kejriwal's tenure as convener is due to end in April 2019.
