'Game changer' BJP will soon form government in Himachal Pradesh, more Congress MLAs in touch with us: Harsh Mahajan

Shimla, February 28

Harsh Mahajan, the BJP leader who won the Rajya Sabha seat from Himachal Pradesh on Wednesday, claimed that his party is going to form government in the state by ousting the ruling Congress as it ‘lacks majority’ in the house.

Mahajan said several Congress MLAs are in touch with the BJP and the state is going to witness a change in the government.

“The BJP is going to form government in the state. Some more MLAs of Congress are in touch with us. I got phone calls from some of their MLAs and ministers…The situation will change in the next few hours and you will see the BJP form its government soon…For the next 10-20 years, the Congress is not going to come to power here,” Mahajan said.

He said the Congress is “not going to last too long” in Himachal.

“The BJP is the game-changer. People are upset with the Sukhu government. All good leaders are joining the BJP. It is a future party…There has been cross-voting. The Congress has lost majority in the state. This government is not going to last long,” he said.
