Himachal Pradesh: Congress accuses BJP of misleading Hattee community

SHIMLA: Congress has accused the BJP of misleading the Hattee community in the name of providing scheduled tribe status in Himachal Pradesh.

AICC spokesperson Alka Lamba said that Union home minister Amit Shah has come to Sirmaur district on Saturday to mislead the Hattee community, despite the model code of conduct for elections. She said that if the intention of the Central Government was clear, then the announcement of giving tribal status to Hatttee would not have stopped till the cabinet meeting. She said that this decision of the Central Government is only an attempt to "dissolve social poison" between the two communities.
