CNN-News18 reported that the two leaders were apparently unhappy with local leaders not being given credit for their work. They also complained about how local leaders were not allowed to grow. [caption id=“attachment_4426885” align=“alignleft” width=“380”]Representational image. AFP Representational image. AFP[/caption] The news channel quoted sources as saying that the now former Congress leaders are in talks with BJP. In April 2017, the disciplinary committee of Uttar Pradesh Congress had issued a show-cause notice to Dinesh Singh, who had been suspended from the primary membership of the party. The chairman of the committee, Ram Krishna Dwivedi, had issued the notice to Singh for “anti-party” activities and had asked him to reply within five days. In the notice, Dwivedi had stated that at a time when it was essential for all the party men to remain united, Singh had created “chasm” within the organisation and given rise to “infighting”. “Your undignified behaviour against the party line is a very serious issue and has made a negative impact,” the notice had stated. The action against the MLC was taken as he had allegedly misbehaved with the local leaders of Raebareli and passed objectionable comments against senior party leaders. With inputs from PTI
