A section of senior Delhi Congress leaders on Friday demanded the removal of PC Chacko as in-charge of Delhi Congress over "leaking" a personal letter written to him by Sandeep Dikshit, son of former Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit.
At a press conference here, Congress leaders Kiran Walia, Mangat Ram Singhal, and party spokesperson Ramakant Goswami demanded that Congress President Sonia Gandhi should immediately remove Chacko as in-charge of Delhi Congress.
"The present situation of Congress in Delhi is because of PC Chacko," Goswami said.
They also said that a committee should be formed to probe leak of a personal letter written to Chacko by Sandeep Dikshit.
Earlier, speaking to ANI about the letter, Chacko said, "After reading the letter, I thought the Congress president should be aware of this letter. So, I have forwarded the letter to Congress president."
Chacko had said that only Sandeep Dikshit can tell why he wrote the letter.
