BJP Slams Congress for Narrow-Minded Politics Over PM’s Relief Announcements

Shimla, September 11: BJP State Media Incharge and MLA Randhir Sharma accused Congress leaders of displaying narrow-mindedness and low-level politics by failing to thank Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his recent announcements for Himachal Pradesh. Sharma said it was unfortunate that despite PM Modi declaring a ₹1500 crore special relief package, along with compensation of ₹2 lakh for the deceased, ₹50,000 for the injured, and aid under PM Awas Yojana for those who lost homes, Congress leaders refrained from expressing gratitude. He added that PM Modi treated Himachal as his second home by extending generous support, yet the state government chose criticism over acknowledgment. BJP strongly condemned this approach, terming it as “petty politics.”
