Thakur’s expulsion from BJP revoked

The state BJP today revoked the expulsion of senior party leader from Hamirpur, Mr Narender Thakur, who had been expelled for anti-party activities in 2003. The decision assumes political significance as Mr Thakur had spearheaded the dissident campaign against the former chief minister, Mr P.K. Dhumal, under the banner of “Mitra Mandal” all over the state.
