Why Congress expelled 7 party leaders in Bihar and who they are

The expulsion order was issued by Kapildeo Prasad Yadav, the chairman of the Bihar Pradesh Congress Committee (BPCC) disciplinary committee, as reported by HT.

However, the action has triggered renewed controversy within the party, as dissidents accuse it of being a scapegoating strategy aimed at protecting senior leaders from accountability for the electoral defeat.

The expulsions come in the backdrop of Congress’s disappointing performance in the 2025 Bihar Assembly polls, after which the NDA formed the government.
