Srinagar, May 27: A BJP sarpanch -- who was arrested for duping two families by promising them of getting their kin, detained for questioning in a militancy related case, released in south Kashmir district of Anantnag -- was on Thursday expelled from the party.
“The matter was brought into the notice of party high command… the Sarpanch has been expelled from the basic membership of the party,” BJP Vice President of J&K Sofi Yousuf told reporters on Thursday.
