HP CM Sukhu reaffirms commitment to the marginalised

Shimla, May 14 (UNI) Chief Minister Thakur Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu reiterated his government's commitment to the welfare of underprivileged and marginalised sections of society, assuring that no one would be unjustly deprived of their livelihood. Speaking at his official residence Oak-Over, the Chief Minister said that the state government would continue working to provide relief, support, and opportunities to those in need.
He was interacting with a delegation from the Hamirpur Street Vendors Union, who called on him to express gratitude for his intervention in resolving their long-pending issues. The union members informed the Chief Minister that their roadside stalls ('khokhas') had been arbitrarily demolished earlier, leaving many without a means of livelihood. Despite repeated appeals, no relief had been provided until the present government came to power.
The vendors credited CM Sukhu for standing by them and ensuring their rehabilitation. They thanked him for his compassionate approach, which brought them much-needed relief and security.
Political Advisor to the Chief Minister, Sunil Sharma, said that the Sukhu government was committed to ensuring that the benefits of welfare schemes reach the most disadvantaged. He emphasised the Chief Minister’s humanitarian approach in addressing public grievances.
Chairman of APMC Hamirpur, Ajay Sharma, along with senior Congress leaders Rajesh Anand, Manoj Sharma, Rakesh Verma, Sunil Kumar, Harsh Kalia, Neelam Sharma, and representatives of the Street Vendors Union, were present during the meeting. UNI ML SSP
