New Delhi, Dec 25 (IANS): Congress President Sonia Gandhi on Friday expelled Assam MLA Ajanta Neog for allegedly indulging in anti-party activities.

Her expulsion from the party comes amid reports that former Assam Public Works Department minister Neog plans to join the ruling BJP during the visit of Union Home Minister Amit Shah.

In a statement, Congress General Secretary K. C. Venugopal said, "Congress President has approved the proposal of expulsion of Neog from the primary membership of party for indulging in anti-party activities, with immediate effect."

If Neog joins the BJP, it will be a major setback for the Congress in Assam.

Before the 2016 assembly elections in the state, senior Congress leader and former Minister in the Tarun Gogoi government Himanta Biswa Sarma had also joined the BJP along with several of his party colleagues.

The Grand Old Party is yet to recover from the setback it received in 2016.

    Good decision that Sonia Ji is continuing as President anD will be assisted by a four member panel given her age and medical issues. All the Congress workers and Admirers across the country are very happy that the Congress is planning an AICC session and Organisational elections will be held during this session. Rahul like others can stand for these elections. Who ever wins in these elections can fulfill the wishes and desires of crores of congress workers. If the mantle falls on Rahul it would be better as he has proved his mettle in Gujarat, MP and Rajastan in the past and is the best Bet for the country which is at the crossroads.

    The country is waiting for these issues to be sorted out so that this Suit Boot Ki Sarkar and the EVM Sarkarcan be shown the exit door for all the damage they have caused to our Beloved Country during their six years rule. A well meaning person like Rahul is what the country needs to restore Democracy and Social harmony and good relations with all our neighbours so that devlopment can take place and the country prospers and our people enjoy the benefits of all round development. The Hate Politics of the BJP has to be discarded Lock Stock and Barrel.
