Excelsior Correspondent

JAMMU, Oct 28: Senior State vice president, Young Panthers and contesting candidate of Panthers Party from Akhnoor, Pushvinder Singh Manhas, pooh-poohed the claims of PHE Minister Sham Lal that he resigned as Cabinet Minister on the issue of injustice being meted out to Jammu province by NC headed by Omar Abdullah.
However Sham Lal has failed to explain as to why he had submitted his resignation to the Pradesh Congress Chief, Saif-ud-Din Soz and not to the Chief Minister or for that matter to the Governor of the State, he pointed out while addressing media persons at Jammu.
Pushvinder said the issue on which PHE Minister claimed to have resigned, the documents produced by him at the press conference spoke otherwise, wherein time and again the Cabinet Sub Committee have pointed out to the fact that officials from certain departments were not sending the requisite information on the prescribed format, it was in-fact the PHE Department headed by Sham Lal Sharma which had not complied with the request of above referred directions.
He further challenged Sham Lal to come clear on these allegations or desist from contesting elections on false propaganda.
