Himachal Pradesh BJP President Rajeev Bindal asked party workers to step up to ensure a historic win in the 2027 Assembly elections in the hill state, adding that the people of HP are ‘frustrated’ due to three years of Congress "misrule". Bindal made the remarks on Sunday, while addressing a large gathering of BJP workers at a "block-level workers’ meet" held in Sainwala Mubarakpur village of the Nahan assembly constituency in Sirmaur district. Bindal said the BJP had decided to take the "breach of election promises and anti-people policies" of the Congress government to every doorstep.
In the last three years, as alleged by Bindal, the state government pushed Himachal Pradesh backwards in development, increasing inflation, and harassing people by imposing various taxes, abolishing employment opportunities for youth, and closing government institutions. He then claimed that the people of the state are in distress by the "anti-people policies and actions" of the current Congress government, adding that every section of society felt the state had regressed significantly during this period.
"If any development work has been done during its three-year tenure, the government should disclose it. The government's anti-people decisions have hit every person in the state," he said.
The BJP leader also posed several sharp questions, asking why 2,000 schools, colleges, and other government institutions were closed in the state, and why the government had abolished 1.5 lakh sanctioned posts of government employees, betraying unemployed youth.
He asked what happened to the Congress's election promises of providing government jobs to one lakh youths in the first cabinet meeting and giving Rs 1,500 per month to 28 lakh women in the state.
Bindal also questioned the fate of the Congress's pledge to provide five lakh jobs to youths during its five-year term.
