The disciplinary committee of the Meghalaya Pradesh Congress Committee has referred to the party high command the allegations against senior party leader and Power minister Sniawbhlang Dhar for his alleged anti-party activities.
"The state level disciplinary committee of the party which met yesterday will send its report to the AICC for information and necessary action against Dhar," Meghalaya Pradesh Congress Committee president D D Lapang told PTI.
He said "The committee had thoroughly gone through the complaint lodged against Dhar and the report will be sent in a day or two."
The Jowai Block Congress Committee (JBCC) has demanded that Dhar be sacked from the ministry for his alleged anti party activities particularly at the constituency of Congress leader and Deputy Chief Minister R C Laloo in West Jaintia Hills district.
In his complaint to Lapang, JBCC president A A Shullai said, "This is a fit case for the party to take strong and necessary action by dropping this Minister (Dhar) immediately from the cabinet and withdrawn all party posts he is holding.
