Jammu: Democratic Progressive Azad Party (DPAP) on Monday expelled former legislator Haji Abdul Rashid from the primary membership of the party for alleged anti-party activities.
Rashid, who had won the assembly election in 2014 from the Sopore constituency of north Kashmir’s Baramulla district on a Congress ticket, was among the founding members of the DPAP which was formed by former chief minister Ghulam Nabi Azad in September last year after ending his five-decade-long association with the grand old party.
Azad, chairman of DPAP, ordered the expulsion of Rashid from the primary membership of the party for anti-party activities, DPAP general secretary R S Chib said in a statement here.
