Congress leader Acharya Pramod Krishnam was expelled for his repeated statements against the party
The Congress party on Saturday expelled Acharya Pramod Krishnam for six years with immediate effect for ‘anti-party remarks’.
“In view of the complaints of indiscipline and repeated statements against the party, the Congress President has approved the proposal of the Uttar Pradesh Congress Committee to expel Pramod Krishnam from the party for six years with immediate effect,” the party said in an official statement.
Notably, the party’s decision came days after Acharya Pramod Krishnam met Prime Minister Narendra Modi and invited him to lay the foundation stone of Shri Kalki Dham in Uttar Pradesh’s Sambhal on February 19.
