Cong divided house : Dhumal

Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Prem Kumar Dhumal has alleged that Congress leaders are befooling the people of the state by pretending to be united to get political benefit during the bypoll.

While addressing the BJP Election Rally at Rohru in support of party candidate Khusiram Balnatah today, Mr. Dhumal said Congress has no agenda or programme for the development of state. He alleged that during Congress rule in the state its leaders had extensively miss utilised the funds for their personal benefit, and on the other hand they had been pretending to be well wishers of people.

He alleged that due to mismanagement of State Economic order developmental works came to halt during Congress rule. He appealed to the people to not to get misled by the malicious campaign of Congress and vote for upright and honest candidate of BJP keeping the development of the area in mind.

Mr Dhumal assured that state government is committed to the accelerated development of Rohru and giving special attention for this remote and far flung area. Chief Minister alleged that Mr.

Virbhadra Singh who had been representative of this Assembly segment for many times never took the development of this Assembly segment seriously.

He said during Congress rule the conditions of roads to this area remained grim. He charged the previous regime with delaying the release Market Intervention Scheme Payment which he claimed was cleared during present rule in the state. He charged Mr. Singh for shedding crocodile tears as bypoll for this segment is on the head. He said after resuming power in the state about 22 months back development of this state came on the tracks. He said for ensuring the all-round development of people in the state, his government has taken the lead by giving special emphasis on public welfare schemes and has achieved many milestones in a very short span. Recalling his governments achievements, Mr Dhumal said social pensions and daily wages have been enhanced during BJP rule.

He said after implementing Fifth finance commission recommendation the state government had provided the benefits of crores of rupees to the state employees.

Mr Dhumal hope that People of Jawali and Rohru would support BJP candidates to strengthen the transparent and responsible government in the state.
