CHANDIGARH, March 19: The Congress in-charge for Punjab Thakur Gulchain Singh Charak today cautioned the party leaders against criticising each other in public and issuing press statements against party leadership, saying this will invite strong disciplinary action under party rules.
In a statement issued here today, Mr Charak said, on his arrival here, he came across various newspaper reports in which certain party leaders had gone public and crticised the party leadership.
He said, the party leaders were welcome to meet him or any other concerned AICC leaders and raise the issue with them but they must not go public about these. However, he warned, “going public on the issue amounts to gross indiscipline and anti party activity which will invite action against such leaders under party rules”.
Mr Charak said, this was not the time to work at cross purposes and the party rank and file must put up a strong and united front to maintain and boost the morale of the workers who really worked very hard to the run up and during the elections.
He remarked, “our leaders should perform the role of an effective opposition as is expected of them by the party and their supporters in fighting against the anti people and the anti-state policies of the Akali-BJP government”.
