Shimla:

Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu today targeted the six Congress rebel MLAs and BJP by saying that the godlike people of Kutlehar will answer with votes those who indulged in money power politics and sold their honor for Rs 15 crore each.

He hit hard Congress rebel MLAs, those betrayed the party during Rajya Sabha election in Himachal recently.

Kicking out an  election campaign of Congress for four parliamentary and six assembly constituencies of state from Samurkalan in Bangana (Kutlehar) Assembly constituency of Una district today, CM said that the crowd gathered in the public meeting has confirmed that they will not support the greedy people here, rather the public is supporting those who are paving the way for the sustainable development of Himachal.

“People’s mandate is insulted by these Congress rebel MLAs who have to serve money and not the public. To fill their pockets with the public’s hard-earned money, they try to topple the elected government by using all means and penalties. But this is the public, it knows everything, it recognizes whose intentions are flawed and whose intentions are clear” he remarked.

“I rose from an ordinary family and reached the post of Chief Minister. I engaged myself with all my might in public service through public welfare schemes. But this service to the public was not liked by these Congress rebel MLAs, who served money. They adopted new tactics to stop it. Attempts were made to topple the government by the BJP by using all tactics “said Sukhu.

“But with your blessings, their tactics did not succeed and will not succeed in future also. I have full confidence that you people will definitely teach a lesson to those doing money power politics in the coming elections” he added targeting the BJP.

“It’s time to teach lesson to those who insulted the mandate for money. You have to teach them lesson with your votes, so that they will understand that there is no politics of dishonesty and wealth power in Godland” he added.

“The goal of the Congress government is to uplift equal and balanced development of all sectors, poor and backward classes. We are focusing more on resource creation in the state so that Himachal Pradesh will emerge as the country’s leading and self-reliant state in the next 10 years” he said.

CM said that the question to the three MPs of BJP, who talked negative in the elections, is where they were in the biggest disaster of history? Why did not they help people? Why did they not ask for relief package for Himachal from Central Government like Gujarat and Uttarakhand? The public of Himachal demands answers.

“This love and affection of yours is our real strength. We can collide with the greatest force at this. Together we will defeat the power of wealth” he said.
