Lucknow: Samajwadi
Party general secretary Akhilesh Yadav Tuesday expelled a party
leader for indulging in vandalism and showing black flags to
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi in Aligarh.
"On day one I had made it loud and clear to my party functionaries
to desist from any attempt to disrupt the poll campaign of any
political rival. As such as soon as I learnt that some of my party
men had indulged in vandalism and showed black flags to Rahul
Gandhi in Aligarh today (Tuesday), I took disciplinary action
against the local district general secretary," Akhilesh, the son
of party chief Mulayam Singh Yadav, told IANS.
"I have expelled Dinesh Yadav, our district general secretary in
Aligarh, for his failure to abide by the basic norms set by the
party," he added.
The move is seen as a subtle retort to Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP)
president and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati's oft-repeated
proclamation that hers was the only party in which action was
taken even against the high and the mighty within the party if
they were found indulging in unlawful acts.
