He said that during the assembly elections, he had given the slogan that ‘Congress is not a fraud, Himachal Bachao is the only chance’, this thing seems to be proving true today. Giving OPS is a good thing, but in order to please lakhs of people, the government has done unrighteousness with 70 to 80 lakh people.
