In Himachal Congress, there is information about the ruckus from Shimla to Delhi over the inside account ticket. This is the reason that despite the tickets being fixed for 57 seats, the party is unable to release the list of candidates. Congress state president Pratibha Singh on Monday along with her supporters remained in Delhi and lobbying for her people.
Sources reveal that even today Pratibha Singh has held meetings with many leaders in Delhi. It is expected that tickets have been fixed for 57 seats, out of them it is possible to change one or two tickets because Congress’ Young Brigade and some former MLAs are angry about the ticket in the state.
waiting for tickets
Surprisingly, the leaders of the state Congress have been making claims of releasing the list of tickets in ‘Aajkal-Aajkal’ for three days. Even the media in-charge of Himachal has called a press conference regarding the announcement of tickets but tickets are not being issued. It shows that all is not well in the party.
High command formed committee
The party high command has constituted a committee under the leadership of Deepa Das Munshi, Mukul Wasnik and Congress state in-charge Rajiv Shukla to resolve the dispute on the disputed seats. This committee will recommend to the CEC to finalize the ticket after discussing the disputed seats again. After the formation of the committee, the attitude of Youth Congress workers has also started softening a bit. They are hopeful that the party will take some decision about them too.
Controversy over these seats too
At present, Congress has fixed candidates for 57 seats. Now their formal announcement is yet to be made. The Center Election Committee is unable to make a consensus on 11 seats. There is controversy over these. Among them Manali, Kutledah, Shimla Urban, Sulah, Dehra and Hamirpur are prominent.
If the dispute is not resolved, then Sonia’s survey will decide the ticket
Sources reveal that in the event of no consensus, Sonia Gandhi will decide on the ticket for these seats. Sonia has got a secret survey done. In case the dispute is not resolved, Sonia Gandhi will decide the ticket allotment on the basis of the survey report.
yuk office bearers warn of resignation
Congress has not given ticket to even a single Youth Congress leader this time. Especially Youth Congress President Nigam Bhandari Kinnaur, Youth Congress Working President Yadopati Thakur Sarkaghat and General Secretary Surjit Bharmouri are demanding tickets from Bharmour seat. There is anger among them for not getting a ticket for any of them. In view of this, the YuC leader has warned of mass resignation.
Congress engaged in damage control
The party has now formed a damage control committee and has stopped releasing the list of tickets for the time being. Similarly, former MLA of Chaupal, Dr. Subhash Mangalet has also clearly indicated that he is a rebel.
