Srinagar: The Jammu and Kashmir Apni Party on Wednesday expelled its Chief Spokesperson, Muntazir Mohiuddin, from the party’s basic membership with immediate effect for issuing what it termed as “irrelevant and inappropriate” press statements contrary to the party’s interests.
The decision was taken during a meeting of the Parliamentary Affairs Committee (PAC) held at the party headquarters in Church Lane, Srinagar, under the chairmanship of Mohammad Dilawar Mir.
According to an official statement, the PAC took serious note of recent statements made by Mohiuddin, observing that his remarks were not aligned with the party’s principles and had the potential to harm its image.
“After thorough deliberations, the Committee unanimously decided to expel Mr. Muntazir Mohiuddin from the basic membership of the Jammu and Kashmir Apni Party with immediate effect,” the statement said.
The PAC reaffirmed that the Apni Party remains committed to maintaining discipline, unity, and collective responsibility among all its members and office bearers.
Party insiders said the leadership viewed the statements issued by Mohiuddin as a breach of internal protocol and an act that went against the party’s organizational ethos. [KNT]
