Dharamsala, April 10

BJP leader and HPCA Director Sanjay Sharma, addressing a press conference, said here today that the post of mayor in Dharamsala should be given to a Brahmin councillor.

He said the Brahmin community had been marginalised in Kangra. There was not a single Brahmin MLA in the BJP in the constituency. To respect the sentiments of Brahmins that constitute of a significant vote bank, the government should give the post to a member of the community.

Though the Congress had given enough representation to Brahmins, in the BJP, the community had been ignored. He also demanded that a Brahmin kalyan board should be constituted . — TNS
