CM lashes at BJP for resorting to cheap tactics to overthrow elected Government

Chief Minister Thakur Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu today participated in the Torch (Mashaal) procession carried out by the Himachal Pradesh Congress Committee (HPCC) which started from the historic Ridge and culminated at Ambedkar Chowk, Chaura Maidan in Shimla today. The Himachal Pradesh Congress Committee carried out the march against the BJP and its allies, for trying to destabilize the state government by using unconstitutional means.
HPCC President Pratibha Singh, HP Legislative Assembly Speaker Kuldeep Singh Pathania, Cabinet Ministers, Deputy Speaker, MLAs, various office bearers, party leaders and party office bearers participated in the procession.
On the occasion, the Chief Minister said that BJP attempted to show dust to the democratic process and making mockery of the democratic norms in an unethical and undemocratic manner and tried to topple the congress government in the State, ignoring the huge mandate of the people given to congress. An attempt was made by the Central Government to attack the democratically elected State Government by using unconstitutional means.
