Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee withdrew an X post calling for Chief Justice of India Surya Kant to resign after it drew sharp criticism.
The original post criticized the Chief Justice over his remark that law and order was not his responsibility.
The Congress high command asked for the post to be removed, saying it was the result of a management lapse by account handlers.
The party also sacked the worker responsible for the post and said it was published without leadership approval.
