SHIMLA:

Sukhu, while departing for Bengaluru to attend the Congress Working Committee (CWC) meeting, said, "I am going to Bengaluru to participate in the CWC meeting. Following this, I will meet with Union ministers and government representatives to discuss federal issues concerning Himachal Pradesh. If appointments are arranged, I also plan to attend the pre-budget meeting in January and raise issues related to our state."

He highlighted critical concerns, including revenue and financial challenges faced by the state.

Sukhu said that the Centre has reduced the state's borrowing limit. Revenue Deficit Grant (RDG) is also continuously decreasing, he said, adding that the loan against NPS has also been stopped.

Himachal Pradesh was getting ₹2,500 to 3,000 crore every year from 2017 to 2022 as GST compensation amount. This amount has also stopped from July 2022. The loan of about 1,760 crore received against NPS has also been stopped.

Chief minister Sukhu said he will raise all these issues before the Union ministers in Delhi.
