HIMACHAL PRADESH

PAST, PRESENT&FUTURE.

A SHORT ANALYSIS

-RUCHI DHIMAN

2. HIMALAYAN PARADISE

3. HIMALAYAN PARADISE

HIMACHAL PRADESH WHICH IS CURRENTLY A VERY BEAUTIFUL HILL STATE WAS ONCE A CHIEF
COMMISSIONER PROVINCE.AFTER A LOT OF STRUGGLE THE CHIEF COMMISSIONER PROVINCE WAS
CONVERTED INTO UNION TERRITORY & FINALLY IN 1948 THE FORMATION OF HIMACHAL PRADESH
TOOK PLACE.
ALSO,I WANT TO SHARE THE FACT THAT THE FIRST RULING PARTY IN HP WAS THE CONGRESS PARTY.
AND MY FATHER SAYS THAT IT IS STILL THE BEST POLITICAL PARTY,BUT THE PRESENT LEADERS ARE NOT
WORKING LIKE THE OLD LEADERS LIKE BAPU KANSHI RAM DID. MY FATHER SAYS THAT WHAT WE CALL
HIMACHAL PRADESH A STATE TODAY WAS ONLY POSSIBLE THROUGH THE EFFORTS OF THE CONGRESS
PARTY & HE ALSO APPLAUDS THE EFFORTS MADE BY PRIME MINISTER INDIRA GANDHI AT THAT TIME.
AND HE ALSO WANTS THAT CONGRESS PARTY COMES BACK MUCH MORE STRONGER WHICH IS
POSSIBLE IF LEADERS AND PARTY WORKERS CONTRIBUTE THEIR EACH DAY TO SOCIAL CAUSES AND
CURRENT POLITICAL ISSUES IN THE HIMACHAL PRADESH STATE.
FROM 1948 WHAT WE SEE TODAY IS BECAUSE OF THE CONTIBUTION OF THE CONGRESS PARTY & ITS
WORKERS.SO,PEOPLE LIKE ME STILL HOPE THAT CONGRESS PARTY RULES OUR STATE AGAIN AND WORK
FOR BETTERMENT OF OUR SOCIAL STATUS,PROVIDES US GOOD JOB PROSPECTS & MAKE HIMACHAL AN
ABODE OF GOD AGAIN.
THE PARTY LEADERS MUST SELECT DEDICATED STAFF AND WORKERS TO ABIDE THE PARTY ORDERS AND
WORK DAY & NIGHT TO MAKE HIMACHAL PRADESH A BETTER PLACE FOR ITS RESIDENTS RATHER THAN
SELLING LAND TO MNC’S AND INVESTORS.
