Former Bengal BJP vice president Joyprakash Majumder and Ritesh Tewari were among the two leaders who were issued showcause letters, said BJP state chief.
Days after attending a press meet of Union Minister and BJP MP from Bongaon Santanu Thakur, two senior BJP leaders were on Sunday issued a showcause notice by the state unit.
BJP state president Sukanta Majumdar told news agency PTI the two leaders - former state vice president Joyprakash Majumder and Ritesh Tewari - were issued showcause letters.
"Yes, these two leaders have been showcaused on certain grounds after reports of our disciplinary committee. You will be informed in detail later," Mr Majumdar said.
Contacted, Mr Tewari said "yes I got the showcause letter. I will be replying soon. This has been made with malafide intentions. I am a loyal BJP worker for more than 35 years. Such action against loyal party workers will not help in intensifying the fight against Trinamool Congress. But I am confident I will fight out the conspirators who are even leaking confidential information to media. Otherwise how could our showcause news reach to media before we get the note."
