Media Adviser Raveen Thukral, who was in the rank of a Minister of State, had submitted his resignation on April 7 and it was accepted, the sources said.
The Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) on Thursday filed a complaint with the Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) demanding strict action in the matter.
The SAD accused him of violating the model of code of conduct by posting official Congress party press releases on the social media.
