Meerut: In an huge embarrassment to congress party, where a UP congress leader has quoted Rahul Gandhi ‘Pappu’ on a social media group. However, taking the serious note over the offensive act of UP leader, the congress high command expelled him from the party membership.
Vinay Pradhan, the party's Meerut district president, had referred to Rahul Gandhi in a message sent on a WhatsApp group titled 'Indian National Congress'.
In his WhatsApp message, Pradhan had lauded Rahul Gandhi's recent visit to Mandsaur following the death of five protesting farmers in police firing.
"Pappu could have joined hands with Adani, Ambani and Mallya but he did not do that. Pappu could have been a minister or even the Prime Minister, but he did not go down that road. Instead, he put his life on the line by going to Mandsaur." Pradhan's said in the message.
Reacting to it, Ramkrishna Dwivedi, chairman of the disciplinary committee in Congress, issued a letter on Tuesday announcing Pradhan's removal from all party posts for the "provocative" message.
