In the first round of the meeting, party said, Pathak reviewed the AAP's work and structural development in the UT.
He was briefed by the AAP leadership from Jammu and Kashmir about the party's activities convened in the past and efforts made to strengthen the party at grass root level, the AAP said in a statement.
