Bidhuri was expelled as he had taken the NCP ticket and symbol -- while being a member of LJP -- to contest from the Badarpur assembly seat, party general secretary Subhash Sharma and Delhi unit president Lalit Kumar Gautam said in a statement.

They said the party has also decided not to support any NCP candidate in the polls because "NCP has committed breach of trust by allotting its symbol to Bidhuri."
