Two days after Congress rebel Sudhir Sharma sent a defamation notice to Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu, another rebel Rajinder Rana on April 7 sent a similar notice to the Chief Minister.
The Chief Minister had been saying that the nine MLAs, including six Congress rebels and three Independent legislators who voted in favour of BJP nominee Harsh Mahajan during the Rajya Sabha polls on February 27, had "sold their soul" and even compared the Congress rebels with black snakes during his speeches.
During a rally in Himachal's Una district, Mr. Sukhu had on Thursday alleged that the Congress rebels are "corrupt" and will go behind bars. He further alleged that the six Congress rebels and three Independents were "sold" for Rs 15 crore each.
