Sukhu attacks rebels and Independents, says people will teach them lesson for 'selling' themselves
rebels and three Independents, who voted for the BJP candidate in Rajya Sabha polls, Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu on Saturday said that people will teach them a lesson for «selling themselves in the political mandi of the BJP». "Himachal is devbhumi and the land of Gods and Goddesses and the people never support the dishonest and the present election would decide that honesty should win and dishonesty must be defeated," Sukhu said while addressing a meeting at Kupvi in the Shimla district in support of Vinod Sultanpuri, the Congress candidate from the Shimla (SC) Lok Sabha seat.
He said that the ongoing election is not for saving the chair or the government but for «saving democracy» and asked the voters to decide whether the strength of democracy is 'dhanbal or janbal' (money power or people's power).
Asserting that the present election is not an ordinary election and would determine the course of future politics of the country, he asked, «What would be the value of the vote if the government in power at the Centre purchases the elected representatives with money power?»
Confrontation between the truth and lies is common but the truth always triumphs, he said and appealed to people to teach a lesson to those who played with their sentiments.
