Congress expels Ghanaur ex-MLA Jalalpur for anti-party activities
Congress expelled former Ghanaur MLA Madan Lal Jalalpur for indiscipline and anti-party activities.
The expulsion follows public remarks against central leadership and a confrontation during the party's Har Booth Mazboot programme in Patiala.
Jalalpur had been issued a show-cause notice on July 6 regarding remarks against Congress general secretary KC Venugopal and Bhupesh Baghel.
Punjab Congress disciplinary committee chairman Avtar Henry said Jalalpur's explanation was unsatisfactory, leading to his suspension and eventual expulsion.
The decision was made public to send a stern disciplinary signal after Jalalpur's supporters confronted PPCC chief Amarinder Singh Raja Warring.
