Nadaun. At the conclusion of the 3-day Asian Rafting Championship, Deputy Chief Minister Mukesh Agnihotri said that the purpose of this Asian Championship, being organized in the assembly constituency of Chief Minister Sukhwinder Singh Sukhu, is to develop tourism activities in this area and also to promote water sports in the Beas river. Through this, efforts will also be made to provide employment to the local people here. While addressing a press conference, he said that various works are being done by the state government to promote tourism and new sites are also being developed. He said that the area of Beas river in Nadaun is excellent for blue rafting and this circuit has also been considered of high standard by the World Rafting Association.
Mukesh Agnihotri said that he has also opposed the proposal put forward by BJP leaders in the interest of Himachal. He taunted and said that Jairam Thakur was trying to become a martyr by cutting his finger and he was working with anti-Himachal mentality. He said that BJP leaders go to Delhi only to find out whether any money is being released to the state. On the questions being raised by BJP on the financial condition of the state, Mukesh Agnihotri said that the previous BJP government will be known for financial irregularities in the state.
Mukesh Agnihotri said that the previous government had drowned the state under financial debt and BJP had fought the assembly elections only at government expense. He also questioned the figures being presented by the BJP and said that the BJP leaders do not know from which agency they are collecting such figures. He said that the present Congress government has taken steps towards bringing financial discipline in the state. On this occasion, senior Congress leader and State General Secretary of Congress Party Brijmohan Soni, Block Congress President Prithvi Chand, Shammi Soni, Monty Sandhu, Rajendra Chaudhary, Santosh Sandhu and Reena Devi and other dignitaries were present.
On the issue of handing over the investigation of crypto currency case to CBI, Mukesh Agnihotri said that the SIT constituted by Himachal Pradesh has done an excellent job and recently arrested 3 police personnel and also a forest guard. He said that when this matter started in 2018, everyone knows whose government was there. On the issue of water cess, Mukesh Agnihotri said that the state has the right on the water of the state and the state government has taken a decision on the issue of truth. He said that BJP had not imposed any restrictions in other states, so why is the Himachal government being questioned on this issue. Attacking the BJP, he said that the government has worked to increase revenue by imposing tax on vehicles coming from outside states, then why was the BJP not able to implement it during its time.
