New Delhi: Lok Janshakti Party National President Chirag Paswan has expelled all the five rebel MPs from the party today. Chirag Paswan had called a meeting of the executive members of his LJP faction. Many people were also involved in this meeting virtually. It was unanimously decided in the meeting that all the rebel MPs would be ousted from the party.
This decision was informed by Bihar LJP Working President Raju Tiwari. He said that we are the real LJP party. "This is the party of Late Ram Vilas Paswan. The national president is Chirag Paswan. We don't care what the rebel group is talking about or who is making or removing the party chairman. These rebels are just misleading the public and they have no power," he said.
