Shimla, April 8 -- The Chief Minister of Himachal Pradesh Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu on Wednesday accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of failing to support the state on the issue of Revenue Deficit Grant (RDG), asserting that the opposition was indulging in "mere politics" instead of standing with the people of the state.

"The BJP is only doing politics. They did not stand with the people of Himachal Pradesh on the Revenue Deficit Grant, which was the rightful claim of the state," Sukhu said while addressing reporters in Shimla.

The Chief Minister was speaking after inaugurating the South Asian Table Tennis Youth Championship 2026 at the Indira Gandhi Sports Complex. Local MLA Harish Janartha was also present on the occasion.
