National General Secretary of Apna Dal Anupriya Patel has been removed from the post for "indiscipline", a senior party leader said today.
"Anupriya was indulging in indisciplinary activities under influence of some sycophants. Before Lok Sabha elections, she had announced a national committee without the party's consent," Apna Dal National President Krishna Patel said over phone from Kanpur.
"Recently, on October 20, Anupriya said that she will look after all my responsibilities, which was a wrong thing," she said.
Anupriya is the party MP from Mirzapur. Apna Dal is an ally of BJP.
Krishna said the alliance with BJP was not Anurpriya's idea alone.
She, however, said Anupriya has been removed from the post and not the party.
Anupriya, however, rejected the allegations against her and said that she had always worked in the interest of the party.
She said accusing her of indiscipline is injustice.
