Will take action against Seetharam, Lakshminarayana, says Congress disciplinary panel chief

Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee disciplinary action committee chairperson K. Rahman Khan on Thursday said notices would be issued to senior leader and former Minister M.R. Seetharam and the former MLC M.D. Lakshminarayana for publicly criticising functioning of KPCC president D.K. Shivakumar.

“No one, irrespective of seniority, should speak badly of the party and internal matters publicly. I have noted remarks made by Mr. Seetharam and Mr. Lakshminarayana. Soon, notices will be issued to them asking why action should not be taken against them,” Mr. Khan, former Union Minister, told reporters here.

A few days ago, Mr. Seetharam had organised a programme with his loyalists and supporters where he lashed out at the State Congress leadership for the “injustice” he had faced. Congress MLA B.K. Sanghamesh and other party office-bearers had attended the meeting.
