PDIP Tegur Council Kolonel, Hasto: All Tempak Mengendali Partai Disciplinasi
Secretary General of the PDI-P (PDIP) Hasto Kristiyanto said discipline was carried out on cadres who joined the Council of Colonels.This step was taken because PDIP General Chair Megawati Soekarnoputri had asked no one to rush to support certain names in the 2024 presidential election."The Council of Colonels is not known in the party's AD/ART. The party emphasizes discipline and everything related to the presidential candidate, the vice president's direction is clear. All cadres must have revolutionary awareness," Hasto told reporters in the GBK area, Jakarta, Sunday, October 23.For information, this Council of Colonel was formed by members of the PDIP faction in the DPR RI. This team aims to support the Chairman of the DPR RI, Puan Maharani, as a presidential candidate (candidate) in the 2024 presidential election.Returning to Hasto, he reminded all PDIP cadres not to grumble. The announcement of the candidate to be carried will be delivered directly by Megawati."Don't worry. Be patient, and definitely at the right time, meet the people according to the people's spiritual atmosphere, Mrs. Megawati will announce the presidential and vice presidential candidates," he said.Not only the Council of Colonels, the Chairperson of the Solo PDIP DPC FX Hadi Rudyatmo will also be disciplined. The reason is that he has expressed support for the Governor of Central Java Ganjar Pranowo to run in the 2024 presidential election."So everything is perpendicular to the discipline, not only the Colonel Council. Mr. FX Rudy from Solo also stated that he supports the presidential candidate, that is the authority of the chairman, as a party will uphold party discipline, to all parties without exception," said Hasto.Previously, the Chairman of the Honorary Division of the PDIP DPP Komarudin Watubun confirmed that the party leadership gave a strong warning to the Council of Colonels. The warning letter was signed by the Secretary General of PDIP Hasto Kristiyanto."That's right. If the secretary general conveys it means it's true. That's since October 5," Komarudin told reporters, Friday, October 21.Komarudin revealed that not all PDIP cadres in the Colonel Council were given a strong reprimand. Because, he said, not everything listed in the forum violates the party's AD / ART."Yes, not all names that were listed were not all given a warning. Because the level of involvement was different. The harsh reprimand that came out went through the stages, because there were members who had been given previous warnings. That was the umpteenth stage, so it was in the stage of a strong reprimand," he said."If friends who don't understand the problem just put their names, don't be reprimanded. Those who have been reprimanded have been published in the media, that's what we give a warning to," he continued.
