Power addicts won’t succeed: Himachal CM
The public will never forget and forgive the attempts of the BJP to play with the democracy by 'Dhan-Bal' (money power), he said.
Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Thakur Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu said the state government would make a provision in Mukhyamantri Sukh Ashrvay Yojna of providing rent for accommodation to the orphan children under the scheme.
He gave this assurance while interacting with the beneficiaries of various schemes during the ‘Sarkar Gaon Ke Dwar Programme’ held in village Nakki of Pragpur in district Kangra on Friday.
A beneficiary of Mukhyamantri Sukh Ashray Yojana, Prince Sharma, said he was doing MBA from Regional Center Dharamshala and the state government was bearing the entire expenses of his studies, but as there is no hostel and he was putting up in the private accommodation.

Responding to it, the chief minister said to ensure that the studies of children do not hamper, the government will make a provision in the scheme for providing rent to such children.
Another beneficiary of Sukh Ashray Scheme Dr. Rashmi Sharma thanked the chief minister for providing financial help from the state government to pursue her studies after BAMS apart from pocket money of Rs 4,000.
“This scheme was not merely to show mercy, but it was the right of orphan children whom the government has adopted as the children of the state by enacting a law,” said the chief minister.
Disaster-affected Sarla Devi of Kaloh and Pratima Devi, of Upper Bharol, expressed their gratitude to the Chief Minister for financial assistance for house construction.
The chief minister, listening to the grievance of 88-year-old Tara Chand of Kaloh, directed Deputy Commissioner Kangra Dr. Nipun Jindal to redress his grievance regarding the construction of the road.
