Congress General Secretary KC Venugopal, Vikramaditya Singh
In Himachal Pradesh, there is still a controversy over putting up nameplates on street vendors, dhabas and restaurants. State Public Works Department and Urban Development Minister Vikramaditya Singh is in favor of installing nameplates, which has angered the Congress party. The party has made it clear to Vikramaditya that doing anything or taking any decision against the policies and ideologies of the party is wrong.
Congress General Secretary KC Venugopal has also said this. Also, he said the party does not want to promote hatred in any way. However, the state government has clarified that no such decision has been officially announced yet.
“There is faith in unity”
Congress General Secretary KC Venugopal said he explained the ideals and sentiments of the party to Vikramaditya. Congress policies have been clear from the beginning on the issue of putting up nameplates in eateries and fast food centres. In such a situation, no minister or official can go against the policies and ideologies of the party.
Rahul Gandhi tries to spread love against hate and we should not create hate either. We believe in unity. Controversy-ridden minister Vikramaditya backed his decision and told Venugopal that he had been misrepresented by the media.
Why is there controversy?
Himachal Pradesh Minister of State Vikramaditya Singh on September 25 supported the installation of nameplates in eateries and fast-food centers like Yogi Sarkar in Uttar Pradesh. He said that the owners are required to reveal their identity so that customers do not face any problem, but their decision is against the policy of the Congress party.
The Congress has opposed the idea of ​​installing nameplates from the beginning, saying it would promote discrimination in the name of caste and spread hatred. In such a situation, Vikramaditya has become very popular after his endorsement of nameplates and even the Congress is seen to be very dissatisfied and disappointed with his statement.
