Himachal political crisis: Who is Vikramaditya Singh creating all sorts of troubles for CM Sukhu?
Congress MLA, Vikramaditya Singh, who resigned from his ministerial post today, said that it is for the Congress party's high command to decide on the future course of action.
While replying to questions on his next move, Singh said, “it is for the party’s high command to decide on the future course of action."
«I never was under pressure during my ministerial position; I am the one who creates pressure,” he added.
The ruling dispensation in Himachal Pradesh suffered a massive setback on Tuesday when it lost the state's lone Rajya Sabha seat to the BJP. Interestingly, former Congressman Harsh Mahajan beat another Congress stalwart Abhishek Manu Singhvi, which deepened the crisis for Congress in the state, and it could face a no-trust motion in the assembly.
Who is Vikramaditya Singh?
Born on October 17, 1989, Vikramaditya Singh belongs to the royal Rajput family of the princely state of Bushahr in Himachal Pradesh. He is the son of former Chief Minister of Himachal Pradesh, the late Virbhadra Singh, one of the most popular leaders of the hill state, who had been CM of Himachal six times. Meanwhile, his mother, Pratibha Singh, is a Member of Parliament from Mandi's Lok Sabha seat in Himachal Pradesh.
After the demise of his father in 2021, Vikramaditya was crowned the titular king of the erstwhile princely state of Bushahr. He did his early schooling at Shimla's Bishop Cotton School and then completed his graduation and post-graduation from Delhi University in history.
