The administration of Congress in Himachal Pradesh encounters no jeopardy, as per party insiders. They affirm the completion of its entire five-year term. Monday’s discourse indicates that State Minister Vikramaditya Singh held discussions with the AICC leadership. The party expresses confidence in Chief Minister Sukhwinder Singh Sukhu’s endeavors, diminishing the likelihood of a leadership alteration for the time being.
The party asserts with certainty that, being in the majority, the government will dutifully serve Himachal Pradesh’s populace throughout the full five years. Any endeavor to subvert it with financial influence, they contend, will be futile, as conveyed by a source handling the ongoing political predicament.
To counteract shrewd strategies, measures have been instigated against dissident MLAs under the anti-defection law. The populace of Himachal Pradesh reportedly disdains such political maneuvering, as stated by the sources.
Following the disbarment of six MLAs under the anti-defection law, the government claims to possess more backing than the majority requirement of 32 in the 62-member House.
As per their statements, the BJP and dissident MLAs propagate misinformation about the administration. They allege that even the dissident MLAs are offering apologies and tentative reconciliations.
Informants disclose that Minister Vikramaditya Singh, progeny of former Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh and Congress State Unit President Pratibha Singh, has communicated his concerns to senior AICC leaders.
Chief Minister Sukhu strives for the construction of an autonomous Himachal Pradesh, emphasizing advancements in education and healthcare. This information is consistently iterated by the sources.
Congress sources underscore initiatives under the Sukhu administration, including the enforcement of the old pension scheme, job creation, and augmented state revenue. These underscore that a change in leadership is improbable.
In a setback for the ruling Congress in Himachal Pradesh, the BJP secured victory in the state’s solitary Rajya Sabha seat last Tuesday. Despite being a numerical minority, the BJP garnered votes from nine MLAs, encompassing six from the Congress and three Independents.
Himachal Pradesh Assembly Speaker Kuldeep Singh Pathania disqualified six Congress MLAs on Thursday for abstaining from voting on the Cut Motion and the Finance Bill.
After dissenters participated in cross-voting during the Rajya Sabha polls, Vikramaditya proclaimed his resignation from the Cabinet on Wednesday. However, he softened his stance later that evening, following a meeting with Congress observers who declared the withdrawal of the resignation.
