Punjab BJP Disciplines Three Leaders Over Sangrur Press Conference

The Disciplinary Committee, led by former Union Minister Som Parkash, issued show-cause notices on August 27 to Randeep Singh Deol, Maninder Singh Kapial, and Jatinder Kalra. The document demands a written explanation within seven days regarding their specific remarks and the objective of the public briefing. Failure to provide a satisfactory defense will trigger formal sanctions under the party constitution.

This friction arrives at a critical juncture for the state unit. As the party prepares for upcoming elections, BL Santosh, the national organization in-charge, has arrived for a two-day assessment of grassroots readiness. The leadership is clearly aiming to project unity, viewing the public airing of internal organizational complaints as a direct threat to the party’s credibility and public standing.
