Faridkot: The ruling Shiromani
Akali Dal in poll-bound Punjab has expelled two of its local
leaders on charges of indiscipline.
"Faridkot district rural president Gurshivinder Singh and
general secretary Rajvinder Singh have been expelled from the
party," Faridkot SAD chief Mantar Singh Brar said here.
Brar said the two local leaders had attended a meeting
last week convened by Kushaldeep Singh Dhillon, who had
defected from SAD to join Manpreet Badal-led PPP and later
joined Congress.
With Punjab polls scheduled for January 30, Brar said the
party will not tolerate any act of indiscipline.
Dhillon had convened a meeting of his supporters last
week to mobilise support for a Congress rally to be held on
December 28.
