Party’s state president Karan Mahra and LoP Yashpal Arya gave the advice to the party"s “disgruntled” MLAs while speaking with them individually in a bid to stave off an impending crisis in the party.

There has been widespread discontent among Party MLAs over the recent organisational revamp in the state.
