The Congress party on Thursday revoked the expulsion of former Maharashtra minister Satish Chaturvedi ahead of Assembly elections in the state.
He was expelled from the party for anti-party activities in February 2018.
Chaturvedi had supported rebel candidates and indulged in anti-party activities during the Nagpur Municipal Corporation elections in 2017, which led to the defeat of party candidates, the Congress had said last year.
He was issued a show-cause notice on January 23, 2018, by the Maharashtra Pradesh Congress Committee (MPCC) for his anti-party activities and indiscipline, but he did not respond to it, it had said.
The Congress had then decided to cancel his primary membership and expel him from the party.
