BJP manifesto yet another poll gimmick: Pratibha Singh
Himachal Pradesh Congress President and MP Pratibha Singh has termed BJP’s Lok Sabha poll manifesto yet another poll ‘gimmick’.
Truckers went on a day-long strike in Himachal Pradesh on Monday over various demands, including a revision of the GST rates and an end to daily revision of diesel prices.
“We are observing the day-long strike on the call for a nationwide strike,” Truckers’ association spokesperson Ram Kishan Sharma said.
He added that over 1,200 truckers were on strike, refusing to lift for transportation cement and clinker of Ambuja Cement from its two units at Darlaghat in Solan district, around 45 km from here.

Likewise, the production of Jaypee Himachal Cement, a subsidiary of diversified group Jaiprakash Associates, located in Solan district, was also hit.
