Congress’ national spokesperson Pawan Khera on Friday said BJP leaders should seek apology from Chandigarh people for their misdeeds committed in the past six years, before seeking their votes in the upcoming elections.
Addressing a press conference at the Chandigarh Congress Bhawan in Sector 35, Khera said after electing BJP in the last elections, the people of Chandigarh only got inflated bills, pollution, contaminated water and poor rankings in Swachh Survekshan.
Meanwhile, BJP’s former Himachal cell president Varinder Guleria, along with dozens of members, joined the Congress in the presence of Khera, Pawan Kumar Bansal, treasurer, All-India Congress Committee; and Subhash Chawla, president, Chandigarh Congress.
A team of over 60 leaders from the Himachal Congress, including MLAs and ex-MLAs, also reached Chandigarh on Friday and took charge as coordinators for Congress candidates. The teams were sent to different sectors of Chandigarh to canvass for Congress candidates.
