An innocent family photo posted by former Congress MP Priya Dutt on her Facebook page seems to have stirred up a storm within her party. On Sunday, Dutt accepted her removal from the party's national secretary post, tweeting a letter from the party high command, offering her thanks to the party. In the letter, the party said that it planned to use her services in future.

As news spread, some from the local Congress attributed the removal to Dutt's 'irresponsible' cover picture on her Facebook page. The image that shows her with her two sons and husband, also has on the right of the frame two glasses.
