'Laughing stock': BJP's dig at Congress as 'samosa politics' heats up in Himachal
Millennium Post Delhi
|November 09, 2024
SHIMLA: A day after a goof-up over serving snacks to Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu snow-balled into a major controversy necessitating a CID probe, former state BJP chief Satpal Satti on Friday claimed the Congress government has become a "laughing stock" for ordering an "inquiry into samosas".
-
"The police should focus on the many scandals, from the CM's office to the secretariat, instead of wasting their time on petty matters," Satti said in a statement issued here.
The incident occurred on October 21 when samosas and cake meant for the Chief Minister -- who was visiting the CID headquarters here -- were accidentally served to his security staff, necessitating a CID probe that termed it an "anti-government" act.
