The Himachal Pradesh Congress today launched campaign over the alleged failures of the Narendra Modi dispensation and passed five resolutions against the Centre and the state government. In a one-day convention of the party in Mandi, state Congress chief Sukhvinder Singh Sukkhu said that the party would reach out to the people at the grass root and the campaign would continue till the 2019 Lok Sabha polls. The event was attended by MLAs, former ministers and other senior leaders.
