Himachal Pradesh BJP today sought the resignation of Congress Working Committee member and former MP Dhani Ram Shandil from all party posts for alleged links of his son, Lt Col Sanjay Shandil with a Bangladeshi woman suspected to be an ISI agent.
Addressing a press conference here, state BJP general secretary Rajiv Bindal said Shandil, who was himself a retired
army officer, must resign from CWC membership and quit all other party posts on moral grounds.
“The alleged involvement of son of a CWC member, who has himself remained member of important Defence committees
was a serious matter as a Court of Inquiry had already been initaited by the army against Lt Col Sanjay Shandil,” he said.
Bindal said family members of anyone having links with a person suspected to be a spy, cannot be entrusted with any
responsibility that could pose a security risk.
He said framing of charges against Virbhadra Singh as Union cabinet minister and the alleged links of Lt Col Sanjay
Shandil with a Bangladeshi spy have caused embarrassment to the people of the hill state.
