Bengal BJP leader expelled for "anti-party activity"

The BJP on Monday expelled Sanjit Mishra, a former president of the party's Malda district unit, for "anti-party activity".

The decision to expel Mishra was taken by the disciplinary committee of the saffron party's state unit, BJP district president Gobinda Chandra Mondal said.

Mishra had been removed from the district chief's post in late June. Following this, he publicly accused a section of the party of indulging in corruption.

Mishra claimed that he is a victim of conspiracy.
