It does not behove Governor to say 'Himachal will become Udta Punjab': CM Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu
Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu on Monday (July 28, 2025) took strong exception to the recent remarks of Governor Shiv Pratap Shukla on drug menace in the State and said that it does not behove a person holding a constitutional office to make such statements. The Governor had, on Thursday (July 24, 2025), expressed his displeasure over the "lack of government rehabilitation centres" in the State and warned that if immediate action is not taken to eradicate drug menace, Himachal Pradesh would become "Udta Punjab" in the next five years. Himachal Pradesh suffers losses of ₹1500 crore during ongoing monsoon season Pointing out the cases under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act rose by 340% from around 500 in 2012 to about 2,200 in 2023, the Governor had said, "There is only one rehab run by the Red Cross in Kullu. We have been hearing that land is being identified to set up a rehabilitation centre in Sirmaur district, but nothing is moving on the ground." Talking to mediapersons in Shimla, Mr. Sukhu said, "The Governor is holding a constitutional and dignified office and we respect him. But making such statements does not behove him. We should all respect the people of Himachal Pradesh." At least 7 killed, 27 injured as bus rolls down into gorge in Himachal Detailing his government's efforts to curb drug use in the State, Mr. Sukhu said, "No previous governments have done what we have done against the drugs. Prevention of Illicit Traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (PIT-NDPS) Act, which enables the detention of repeat offenders involved in drug-trafficking, was invoked for the first time in Himachal Pradesh within three months after the formation of the Congress government," he said. The Chief Minister informed that ₹43 crore worth of illegally acquired properties of drug-traffickers have been seized and directions were given for mapping of all the 3,575 panchayats in the State. A head constable as well as a constable would be deployed for every 5-6 panchayats to dedicatedly work against drug abuse. 'The mapping would reveal a drug abuser and the source of drugs,' he said. "I will also apprise the Governor of steps taken against drug abuse and inform him that several non-governmental organisations are working in this direction. For the first time, a Nasha Nivaran Kendra (State-level model drug de-addiction and rehabilitation centre) was opened at Kotla Barog in Pachhad sub-division of Sirmour district," he said.

Victims of Sigachi unit blast not paid compensation, says BRS leader
Hyderabad: Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) leader T. Harish Rao on Monday alleged that the Telangana government has failed to pay compensation to families of those who died in an explosion at Sigachi Industries Limited in Sangareddy district on June 30. He, along with relatives of some of the victims, met the Additional Collector and slammed the government for its failure to hand over the bodies of the deceased and for not paying compensation of Rs 1 crore each as announced by the Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy. Harish Rao led a protest rally by the families of the victims to the district Collector's office. The former minister said even a month after the accident at the factory in Pashamylaram industrial area, there is no clarity on the number of dead, as the bodies of eight workers have not been handed over to their families. He recalled that the Chief Minister had announced Rs 1 crore compensation each to the families of the deceased, but not even one family has received the ex gratia. Harish Rao said the families of the deceased were in mental agony as they were handed over charred body parts, which they had to immerse in the river. The BRS leader said that an accident of this scale had not happened in the history of united Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. He said that though 54 people lost their lives in this tragedy, the state government's response has been most pathetic and irresponsible. He said there was no official statement about the number of dead and injured. He wanted to know why the government was hiding information about the payment made to the families of the deceased and the injured. Harish Rao said the families of the victims were running around the government offices for death certificates and compensation. They are spending Rs 20,000 to Rs 30,000 to travel from states like Andhra Pradesh, Jharkhand, Bihar and Uttar Pradesh. He said the Chief Minister had announced Rs 10 lakh each to the critically injured, but they received only Rs 50,000. Harish Rao demanded that the government pay at least Rs 50 lakh each to the critically injured and also ensure payment of monthly salaries. The BRS leader pointed out that an NGO has filed a petition in the High Court, seeking direction to the authorities to pay compensation as promised by the Chief Minister. He also alleged that the government is trying to shield the company management, though it has become clear that the accident was caused by their negligence. He claimed that Yashwant, son of a worker, Jagnmohan, who died in the accident, stated in his complaint that workers had warned the company many times that the use of old machinery could lead to disaster, but it did not pay any attention.

The veteran leader was also an excellent orator, and his witty banter on every issue drew big applause from all. Recalling Jaipal Reddy's political journey from student days to the level of Union Minister, CM Revanth Reddy said that the leader's tireless efforts for the welfare of people were commendable. Jaipal Reddy's important role in fulfilling the aspirations of Telangana people for a separate state will be remembered forever, the CM said. Jaipal Reddy never compromised on values in the pursuit of high-standard politics, the Chief Minister said. He recalled that the senior-most leader achieved the distinction of being the first leader from South India to receive the Best Parliamentarian Award. The befitting tribute to Jaipal Reddy is to take forward his aspirations, the CM added. State ministers and senior Congress leaders paid tributes to Jaipal Reddy, who passed away in 2019 at the age of 77. After the Congress party came to power in Telangana, it decided to celebrate the birth and death anniversary of Jaipal Reddy in a befitting manner. Spoorthi Sthal, a memorial built to honour Jaipal Reddy, was inaugurated on his 82nd birth anniversary last year. The memorial has come up on the banks of Hussain Sagar lake on Necklace Road, next to the memorial of former Prime Minister P. V. Narasimha Rao.
