BJP's Rajasthan state unit is mulling disciplinary action against its rebel leaders, including former Union ministers Jaswant Singh and Subhas Maharia who are contesting the Lok Sabha elections as Independent.
BJP state president Ashok Parnami, without naming Singh or Maharia, today said the party's disciplinary committee would serve notices to all rebel candidates and they might be expelled from the party for six years.
"We have sought details about all such rebel candidates which will be referred to our disciplinary committee which will take action against them as per the party rules. Rebels are expelled from the party for six years," Parnami told reporters here today.
Former Union ministers Singh and Maharia filed their nominations as Independent from Barmer and Sikar parliamentary constituencies, respectively, after BJP denied them ticket.
