Chief Minister also announced degree colleges for Dehra and Matour and an IPH division at Kangra.  Speaking at a ‘Samaan Rally’ organised by Kangra MLA Pawan Kajal at Matour, Virbhadra Singh said the state BJP leaders were unnecessarily propagating the issue. “I am astonished that instead of welcoming this move, even former chief minister Shanta Kumar is opposing it, though, I thought he would have been happy enough”, said Virbhadra Singh.

He added that though the BJP leaders keep boasting of nationalism but whenever the elections were around the corner, they talk of regionalism to fulfill their self-interest and for their political survival. “It was due to instigation of few state BJP leaders that one Union leader was pursuing cases against me. But I know the truth will prevail in the end,” said. Chief Minister.
