"The MLAs had appealed him to resign from the post ofPAC chairman but he didn’t. He was even show-caused. He hascrossed his limits," the senior Congress leader said. Mannan said it was also decided that Bhuniya would beboycotted by Congress MLAs. Reacting to the decision, Bhuniya said both Mannan andChowdhury were deliberately insulting him. "They are deliberately insulting me. I haven’t receivedany letter of suspension. Let me get it first, then I willdecide my future course of action," Bhuniya said.

Manas Bhuniya had been show caused by Congress forrefusing to step down from the post of the chairman of thePublic Accounts Committee despite repeated requests by partyleaders. Thirty-nine party MLAs had jointly appealed Bhuniya toresign from that post.
