Bharatiya Janata Party takes a dig at the Congress government on Monday, saying, it should 'mourn' its two-year tenure in Himachal Pradesh instead of celebrating as every section of the society is upset with its rule. The statement by the BJP comes during a rally at Gandhi Chowk in Hamirpur to highlight the "wrong policies" of the state government.
The 'Jan Akrosh' rally organised by the BJP to mark "two years of Congress government's misgovernance" was attended by former minister Bikram Thakur, sitting BJP legislatures Ashish Sharma, ID Lakhanpal and former MLA Rajendra Rana, besides senior party leaders.
The BJP leaders also accused the Congress government of not fulfilling the poll promises made to the public, questioning the government on its 10 guarantees.
Calling the Congress' tenure a "complete failure", Thakur said there is dissatisfaction among every section of society, as neither the unemployed are getting employment, nor the promises made to women are being fulfilled.
"Illegal mining has increased in the state, and the government is benefiting the mining mafia," Thakur said.
Accusing the Congress government of cheating for not fulfilling the promises it made to the people, Sharma claimed the state government has failed to launch any development work in its two-year tenure, while corruption reached its peak during this time.
"Instead of celebrating, the government should give an account of the promises it made to the public," Lakhanpal said.
