Congress to take action Sadhu Yadav for meeting Narendra Modi

New Delhi: Sadhu Yadav, the estranged brother-in-law of RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav, is set to face disciplinary action from the Congress for praising and meeting Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi.

AICC general secretary Shakeel Ahmed said, “I am not sure whether he (Yadav) is still in Congress or not. He had indeed contested the 2009 Lok Sabha election on Congress ticket and then assembly polls in October 2010. But after that we have not seen him active in party affairs.”

Yadav, a former Rajya Sabha MP, was in a defiant mood when reporters asked about possible action from party chairperson Sonia Gandhi in the wake of his meeting.

“I am not at all afraid of disciplinary action from Congress. Let them take action against me at their own peril. If party takes action against me then do you think I will sit with my hands tied ?” he had retorted.

Sadhu Yadav, who had left Lalu’s RJD before the last Lok Sabha polls to join Congress, unsuccessfully contested from Bettiah Lok Sabha seat.
