People upset over price rise, corruption: HPCC president Kuldeep Rathore

Solan, October 19

The price rise, corruption and unemployment during the BJP government have upset people, who will teach the ruling party a lesson in the byelections, said HPCC president Kuldeep Rathore today. He was addressing a corner meeting at Arki in favour of Congress candidate Sanjay Awasthy.

Rathore said, “The state government is indifferent towards the plight of common people and the BJP is grappling with factionalism”. He added that Arki was represented by six-term Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh and as a true tribute to him, the voters should vote for Awasthy.

Sujanpur MLA Rajinder Rana said that BJP leaders would themselves ensure the defeat of their candidate Rattan Pal Singh in Arki, as a section of party leaders were opposed to his candidature.—TNS
