Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh today said that strict action will be taken against Congress workers and leaders found involved in anti- party activities.

"The Himachal Pradesh government has alloted adequate land for the AIIMS as desired by the Health Ministry, but now the Centre is delaying the project for the reason well known to the Union Health Minister," he said.
The chief minister said that the BJP was "mistaken" that it would form government in the state as for next many years they "won't be able to return to power".
Singh announced the construction of a bridge across the Parbati river from a vegetable sub-yard at Shat to Pini- Banasha, and a road from Brehan (Channi-Rawad) to Bijli Mahadev.
He assured to get the survey conducted for a passenger rope-way from Barsheni, Kalra Glacier, Rudra Nag to Kheerganga
