Lok Janshakti Party leader Chirag Paswan on Wednesday wrote to Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla, contesting his decision to name Pashupati Kumar Paras as the leader of the party in the House. In his letter, the ousted leader said the decision of replacing him with his uncle Pashupati Kumar Paras as the leader of the LJP in Lok Sabha was "contrary" to the provisions of his party.
Chirag urged the Speaker to issue a circular saying that the former still holds the position of leader of LJP in the lower house.
Citing his party’s constitution, Chirag said that the National President can only be removed if he/she dies or resigns.
Chirag further mentioned in the letter his decision to suspend the five MPs who joined hands against him.
