Senior Lok Dal leader Abhay Singh Chautala warned against indiscipline even as his nephew Digvijay Singh continued to act defiant on Friday, a day after party chief Om Prakash Chautala disbanded the INLD's student and youth wings.

Abhay Chautala called Digvijay and Dushyant, sons of his elder brother Ajay Singh Chautala, our children even while warning that anyone violating party discipline will face action.

The power struggle within the Chautala family came to the fore Thursday when Indian National Lok Dal (INLD) president Om Prakash Chautala dissolved the party's student and youth wings, headed by Digvijay and Dushyant, respectively.

Abhay Singh Chautala is the younger son of Om Prakash Chautala.

"There are no differences with Dushyant (and Digvijay), they are our children," Abhay Singh Chautala told reporters in Chandigarh.

However, he added, "Discipline is our party's biggest strength. If any person violates it, the party will take action."
