Indore Incident Enrages BJP Central Leadership, Jitu Yadav Expelled From Party

Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): The BJP central leadership is angry with the incident in which party’s corporator (IMC Ward 24) and MiC member Jitu Yadav's supporters entered the house of another corporator Kamlesh Kalra and stripped off his son.

According to sources, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has also come to know of the incident and took an exception to it. The BJP leaders kept mum over the issue for the past five days, but they could not sweep the incident under the carpet, and the central leadership ultimately expressed their anger.

After the central leadership’s anger, the party acted against Yadav in a hurry. According to sources, a reply was sought from the government and the organisation. After Yadav put in his papers for leaving the post, the BJP office expelled him from the party for six years.

Party’s state general secretary Bhagwandas Sabnani wrote to Indore city president saying that Yadav’s action was highly objectionable and it tarnished the party’s image.

It is an act of indiscipline and the BJP’s state president VD Sharma expelled him from the primary membership of the party. Sharma said the Indore unit of the party was told to take action and that an FIR was registered against Yadav who was arrested. Yadav was issued a notice of indiscipline, Sharma said, adding that the party takes action against such people.
