The Congress Tuesday trained its guns on Madhya Pradesh BJP leader Pradeep Joshi, a day after he was removed from his post over purported objectionable chat messages that he exchanged with a local man made their way on social media.
The ruling party said the police should immediately act in the case.
Joshi (55) was Monday removed from his post as Ujjain BJP divisional secretary after the objectionable chat messages he allegedly exchanged with the 25-year-old Indore resident started doing the rounds on social media.
Madhya Pradesh Congress secretary Rakesh Singh Yadav termed it as a case of "sexual exploitation of the man" by Joshi.
Talking to reporters here, Yadav said, "Joshi was chatting with the man since the last 20 days. The BJP leader tried every effort to ensure his misdeeds do not become public."
