Odisha BJP Suspends Suniti Mund & 5 Others For Anti-Party Activities

Bhubaneswar:1/9/24: Suniti Mund, who was BJP nominee for the 2022 election to the post of Mayor of Bhubaneswar Municipal Corporation, has been suspended for anti-party activities.

On being asked by reporters about her suspension, BJP’s Odisha in-charge Vijaypal Singh Tomar on Sunday said, “Anyone who breaks discipline of the party will face action.” However, he did not elaborate further.

According to sources, Mund was suspended based on allegations leveled by a BJP MLA candidate, who lost the assembly election in Bhubaneswar.

After conducting an internal inquiry, the state unit of the saffron party decided to suspend Mund from BJP.
