SHIMLA: Saying the essence of the Congress’s ideology is public service, and beyond social media posturing, Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi on Monday slammed the Central government for discrimination against Himachal Pradesh, as it is ruled by the Congress.
Referring to natural calamities in the monsoon, she said hundreds of families were displaced and widespread damage occurred, yet no assistance was provided by the Centre despite repeated appeals by Chief Minister Sukhvinder Sukhu.
Priyanka was here along with her mother Sonia Gandhi, the Chairperson of the Congress Parliamentary Party, who unveiled the statue of six-time Chief Minister, the late Virbhadra Singh, at the historic Ridge here.
