New Delhi: The alleged leakage of a “personal letter” written by Congress leader Sandeep Dikshit to party’s Delhi in-charge PC Chacko has brought fissures in the open in the party’s unit and has also apparently delayed appointment of new DPCC chief with assembly elections only months away.
A section of senior Delhi Congress leaders have publicly blamed Chacko for the leakage of the letter and sought his removal.
They have also demanded that a committee should be formed to probe leak of a personal letter written to Chacko by Sandeep Dikshit, son of former Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit.
Congress leaders Kiran Walia, Mangat Ram Singhal, and party spokesperson Ramakant Goswami had held a press conference on Friday and 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 had said.
The letter apparently referred to some actions taken by Chacko days before the death of former Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit over her decisions concerning the faction-ridden party unit.
