No minister in Himachal Pradesh would be changed, BJP chief JP Nadda said
The BJP will fight the assembly election in Himachal Pradesh under the leadership of Chief Minister Jairam Thakur, the party's national chief JP Nadda told reporters today.
Elections are scheduled in the hill state later this year.
"Jai Ram Thakur is doing good work and he will continue," Mr Nadda told reporters, putting to rest speculation over Mr Thakur's replacement after Aam Aadmi Party leader Manish Sisodia claimed the BJP would replace the Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister with Union Minister Anurag Thakur.
No minister in Himachal Pradesh would be changed, Mr Nadda said. He added, however, that some 15 per cent BJP MLAs would not get tickets to fight the election.
