On Saturday, Assam Youth Congress president Angkita Dutta was expelled from the primary membership of the Congress for six years.
The reason behind the ban is said to be anti-party activities as said by Tariq Anwar, member-secretary of the Disciplinary Action Committee of the Congress.
To another reports, Dutta had accused Indian Youth Congress chief Srinivas B V for causing mental agony to her after she revealed sexual harassment charges against former IYC president Keshav Kumar.
Dutta through a tweet said, “When previous IYC president Keshav Kumar had sexually harassed and because of #MeToo came out. He was compelled to remove. Now despite being mentally harassed and discriminated by B V Srinivas for 6 months. I have been told to keep mum and no enquiry is initiated.”
Further she added, “Honestly I am aware this could lead to an end of my political career. If this is the price I have to pay, so be it. About me meeting some BJP leader, one is welcome to check CCTV footage of home and office where you will probably see me reading trolls my colleagues are spreading.”
