Lokpal Sethi | Jaipur
The BJP unit in Rajasthan expelled over three-dozen leaders, including one former Minister and four former MLAs, from the party for six years for anti-party activities.
Acting on the recommendation of the party disciplinary committee, State party president Om Prakash Mathur expelled 38 of its leaders.
Talking to The Pioneer, Mathur said this would send a strong message to the rank and file of the party. He said the party would not tolerate acts of indiscipline.
Soon after the withdrawal of nomination papers for the Assembly election, the BJP had either suspended or expelled a large number of leaders, who had contested against official nominees of the party.
While analysing the reasons of party's defeat in the election, senior party leaders came to the conclusion that rebels had done the party in.
The central team of the party, comprising national party general secretary Thawarchand Gehlot and Yashwant Sinha, had listened to the complaints of sabotage.

Betrayal in India happens because the perpetrators dont pay a price. I dont know how the expulsions will pan out but its start to name and idenitfy anti-party folks.
