"Chaturvedi's name has been dropped from the panel of Spokespersons of the Congress," a senior party leader, who declined to be identified, said.
With the Congress high command sensitive to the concerns of Samajwadi Party, the crucial outside supporter of the government, Chaturvedi found himself in soup for advising Amar Singh to "get himself examined".
Amar Singh, when asked to comment on the development, told reporters that if this was true, he was "grateful" to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Congress President Sonia Gandhi as Chaturvedi had repeatedly dubbed him as a "mental case".
