State Bureau, Shimla. The dispute between Revenue Minister Jagat Singh Negi and opposition leader Jairam Thakur in Himachal Pradesh government is not hidden from anyone. Till some time ago both were staunch opponents of each other. On Tuesday, on the birthday of former Chief Minister Jairam Thakur, Revenue Minister Jagat Singh Negi, forgetting all the old grievances, reached his residence. Negi wishes Jayaram a happy birthday. It is hoped that this loving meeting between the two will end their mutual conflict. There was a long standing dispute between Jagat Singh Negi and opposition leader Jairam Thakur. There was continuous conflict between the two since the formation of the Congress government. This time the conflict inside and outside the assembly became much deeper. Not only this, the opposition continuously boycotted Jagat Singh Negi during the assembly session.
How did the conflict escalate between the two?
Revenue Minister Jagat Singh Negi had made sharp remarks on Opposition leader Jairam Thakur during the Assembly session and raised questions on the work done while he was the Chief Minister. During this, Jairam Thakur and the opposition accused him of using unparliamentary words. He strongly opposed it. Considering Minister Negi's statement as serious, the opposition created a ruckus in the Assembly and protested. After this the dispute continued further.
The opposition boycotted Negi's House address and launched a political attack on the Congress government. Negi also filed a breach of privilege notice against Jairam Thakur to the Assembly Speaker, alleging that Jairam Thakur humiliated him in the House.
