State Congress Media cell person Ambrish Kumar reasoned on the remarks made by the former Chief minister Ramesh Pokhariyal Nishank that he must collect correct data before making any announcement. Nishank who is current parliamentarian from Haridwar had said that only 10 percent of the promises made by State Chief Minister Harish Rawat had been accomplished. While BJP leader himself was caught in corruption as mentioned in CAG report of 2010 Kumbh mela when Nishank was CM, he had no right to blame Rawat Government, said Ambrish Kumar.
Former State woman commissioner Santosh Chauhan, Rajesh Shivpuri, Murli Manohar, State spokesperson Anshul Shrikunj, Poonam Bhagat were among other Congress leaders present in the conference.
