Corrupt Cong rebels will go to jail says Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu

Una : Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu on Thursday alleged that the Congress rebels are corrupt and will go behind bars. The Congress rebels who joined the BJP recently will also create a storm and harm the cause of the genuine party workers there, Sukhu said while addressing a public meeting at Samurkalan in Una district.

He said Vivek Sharma (Vikku) is the front runner from Kutlehar assembly seat and Satpal Raijada from Hamirpur Lok Sabha seat for the Congress and asked the people to support the two candidates. Sukhu said the corrupt will not succeed in the state and they will be out of active politics. Talking about the former local MLA Devinder Kumar Bhutto, he asked the people to teach him a lesson and said the BJP should also ignore him.

“As an MLA of Kutlehar, Bhutto had dinner with us on the night before the Rajya Sabha polls but voted for the BJP candidate in the morning. This was an ungrateful act,” Sukhu said.

The chief minister attacked Bhutto saying he used to come with recommendations for getting contracts of crushers but he never asked for the public works. Sukhu accused the BJP of trying to topple the elected Congress government with the help of the Congress defectors and by using money. The public may not forgive them, he said, and urged the voters to ensure that their securities are forfeited in the elections.

The rebels did not come for service. They came to sell the legislature and they came to loot, Sukhu alleged. He said brokers are not needed in politics and the people should give a crushing defeat to Bhutto in the election.
