Disclose names of MLAs who favoured budget session in Dehradun: AAP

Thursday, 29 FEBRUARY 2024 | PNS | DEHRADUN

Tearing into the State government on the budget session being held in Dehradun instead of Gairsain due to the cold climate in the latter, the senior State Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Ravindra Anand said on Wednesday that this revealed its apathetic disdain for the people living in mountainous parts of the State.  “We were astounded seeing the letter signed by MLAs requesting the Speaker to hold the Assembly session in Dehradun instead of Gairsain as Gairsain was cold. This letter should be made public by the Assembly Speaker,” he said.

“It is extremely unfortunate that the ministers and the MLAs are impassive and indifferent to the challenges the people of the mountainous parts of the State keep facing for bare survival. They love to live ensconced amidst the creature comforts and luxury in Dehradun. This amounts to betrayal of the cause which inspired the Statehood leaders to sacrifice everything. The cause has been thrown into oblivion. We wonder how the leaders who canvassed votes in the name of the mountains will now face the electorate in the mountains,” he said.
