Punjab BJP Issues Show-Cause Notices to Three Sangrur Leaders Over Internal Statements
The Punjab BJP's Disciplinary Committee has issued show-cause notices to three Sangrur leaders—Randeep Singh Deol, Maninder Singh Kapial, and Jatinder Kalra—over statements made during a press conference on August 25 that challenged recent organisational changes. The leaders criticized the removal of six district presidents, including Kapial, and announced a protest called 'Punjab BJP Bachao Yatra.' The party alleges these actions harmed its reputation and has requested written explanations within seven days, warning of possible disciplinary measures.
