BJP suspends Nupur Sharma and Naveen Kumar Jindal

New Delhi, 5/6: The BJP on Sunday suspended its national spokesperson Nupur Sharma from the party following her alleged derogatory remarks against Prophet Mohammed which had ignited protests from Muslim groups.

 

 

The party also expelled Naveen Kumar Jindal, who heads its Delhi media, from the party, saying that his views on social media vitiate communal harmony and are in violation of its fundamental beliefs.

 

“Your primary membership is immediately terminated and you are expelled from the party,” a communication from its Delhi president Adesh Gupta said.
