NSUI pays tribute to YS Parmar
On the occasion of Himachal Day, the NSUI on Thursday cleaned up the statue of Yashwant Singh Parmar, the first chief minister of the state and paid tributes to the leader. On the occasion, the NSUI objected to HPU VC Sikander Kumar congratulating people on Himachal Day with the logo of the ABVP in the background. The NSUI reminded the VC that he was occupying a constitutional position, and wasn’t a leader of any BJP wing. Accusing the VC of not upholding the dignity of the post he was occupying, the NSUI urged the Governor to remove him from the post.
