Himachal Minister slams MoS Railway for false claims
The Business Guardian
|February 20, 2025
Himachal Pradesh Public Works Minister Vikramaditya Singh has slammed Union Minister of State for Railways, Ravneet Singh Bittu, for making "factually incorrect" statements about railway projects in the state.
Singh accused Bittu of spreading misinformation to create a political sensation, citing discrepancies in the Union Minister's claims about budgetary allocations.
"I understand that he is a newly appointed minister and may not be well-versed with the statistics of his ministry. However, it seems that he is still stuck in the mindset of Youth Congress. One cannot justify switching from Congress to BJP merely through empty rhetoric," said Singh.
While addressing a press conference in Shimla on Wednesday, Singh pointed out that Bittu's claim of Rs 11,806 crore in additional budgetary support for railway projects in Himachal Pradesh is not supported by official documents or the railway ministry's website.
