Himachal Pradesh Minister Accuses BJP of Disrespecting State for Political Gains

Himachal Pradesh's Minister Anirudh Singh accused BJP leaders of political manipulation by disrespecting the state's population for personal gain. He highlighted the Congress government's fulfilled promises, including pension schemes and subsidies, urging the opposition to contribute positively to the state's development instead of resorting to criticism.

Himachal Pradesh's Rural Development and Panchayati Raj Minister, Anirudh Singh, on Tuesday criticized BJP leaders for allegedly disrespecting the state to gain political advantage.

According to a press release, Singh stated that the BJP is undermining the dignity of Himachal Pradesh's residents by spreading misinformation and engaging in petty politics. He urged the opposition to focus on constructive engagement rather than sensationalism.

Highlighting the achievements of the Congress government, Singh mentioned initiatives like the restoration of an old pension scheme, minimum support prices for agricultural produce, financial assistance programs for women, and subsidies for self-employment projects.
