‘Sukhu govt most incompetent’

Shimla: Former Union minister and BJP MP from Hamirpur Anurag Thakur on Saturday termed the Congress govt in Himachal Pradesh as one of the "most incompetent” in the state since independence. Thakur also accused the Himachal government of making false promises to come to power. While addressing a gathering during BJP's 'Akrosh rally' in Una, the Hamirpur MP alleged the Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu-led government closed projects started by the previous BJP regime. "Forget about the Rs 1,500 promised to women five lakh jobs. Now even those having govt jobs are not being paid salaries," he said. Thakur also alleged that medical staff recruited during Covid period were shown the way out, and those doing internships had to wait for four months for their salaries.
