Shimla, December 24

Vice-Chairman State Pollution Control Board Kuldeep Singh Pathania today reacted to the news reports in which former CM PK Dhumal has alleged that the government did nothing in the last two years for state’s development.

He said: “It seems former CM needs lenses to see development. Unprecedented development has taken place during the last two years besides initiating various innovative schemes aimed at welfare of all sections of society with special emphasis on vulnerable sections.”

Pathania said it was due to better performance of the state under the 13th Finance Commission that NDA government at the Centre had given an additional Rs 23 crore performance grant to Himachal.
