The Gujarat Congress on Friday said it has suspended 38 office-bearers for six years for indulging in anti-party activities during the December assembly elections.
Its convener Balubhai Patel told reporters that the Gujarat Congress’s disciplinary committee met twice this month and so far received 71 complaints against 95 people.
“We have suspended 38 party workers for anti-party activities. Action will be taken against others too. Eight workers have received warnings,” Patel said.
He said that Surendranagar district president Rayabhai Rathod, Narmada district president Harendra Veland and former Nandod MLA PD Vasava are among the 38 people who have been suspended from the party. In the assembly elections, Congress was left with only 17 seats. The Bharatiya Janata Party retained power by winning a record 156 seats in the 182-member House.
