Congress suspends Jogi

NEW DELHI DEC. 6. The Congress tonight suspended the outgoing Chhattisgarh Chief Minister, Ajit Jogi, following the allegation by the BJP that he had attempted to bribe BJP MLAs to split the party and prevent its government from taking office tomorrow. "Jogi has been suspended from the party pending an inquiry into the allegation," Ahmed Patel, political secretary to the Congress president, Sonia Gandhi, told PTI here.

Asked if Mr. Jogi would attend tomorrow's Congress Working Committee meeting, Mr. Patel said: ``When he (Jogi) has been suspended from the party, how can he attend it?''
