BJP expels Poonch district spokesperson for hate speech

Jammu and Kashmir BJP Chief Ravinder Raina expelled a senior party leader for “hate speech” and “using unparliamentary language” during an election meeting in Poonch district.

Poonch district is part of the Anantnag-Rajouri parliamentary constituency where the elections were rescheduled for May 25 by the Election Commission.

PDP president Mehbooba Mufti and National Conference leader Mian Altaf are in a direct contest from the constituency. Prominent among 19 other candidates in the fray include Mohammad Saleem Parray of the Democratic

Progressive Azad Party (DPAP) and J&K Apni Party leader Zafar Iqbal Khan Manhas. Raina ordered expulsion of Poonch district spokesperson Satish Bhargav from the party’s primary membership for a period of six years for “gross indiscipline” and using “unparliamentary language and hate speech”.

The J&K BJP chief passed the order on the basis of the recommendation by Sunil Sethi, the chairman of the party’s disciplinary committee.

Sethi referred to a video of Bhargav making hate speech threatening and using unparliamentary language in a meeting at the Mendhar area of Poonch district.

“It is highly deplorable and such behaviour by a senior leader is gross indiscipline and cannot be tolerated in a disciplined party like the BJP. It is as such recommended that he should be immediately expelled from the party for six years,” Sethi said, adding, “enquiry is not needed in the matter as his conduct is recorded”.
