Bharatiya Janata Party President J.P. Nadda on Sunday ruled out change of guard in the Himachal Pradesh government, asserting that Chief Minister Jai Ram Thakur would continue to be at the helm of affairs.
At a press conference in Shimla, Mr. Nadda said there was no possibility of replacing Mr. Thakur from his position. “The government is performing well with full strength under the able leadership of Mr. Jai Ram Thakur and in the future as well it will continue to do so,” said Mr. Nadda.
Aam Aadmi Party leader and Deputy Chief Minister of Delhi Manish Sisodia had stated that the BJP was scared of the AAP and was likely to replace incumbent Chief Minister with Union Cabinet Minister Anurag Thakur in the run-up to the Assembly polls, which were due later this year.
