Reportedly leader of Opposition in himachal pradesh Jairam Thakur hosted a samosa party for bjp leaders and workers in Mandi on friday after the controversy over the snack surrounding chief minister Sukhwinder Singh Sukhu took center stage in the state. The bizarre row erupted after three boxes of samosas and cakes that were brought from Hotel Radisson Blue and were meant to be served to cm Sukhu at the CID headquarters for a function on october 21, went missing and were served to the cm security staff instead. A CID probe was ordered into the incident, drawing the BJP’s reaction which dubbed the congress government as a “laughing stock".
Meanwhile the goof-up snowballing into controversy necessitated a CID investigation into the incident. The CID termed it an “anti-government" act. cm Sukhu said that the probe was not ordered into the missing samosas which the media had turned it into, but for “misbehavior" of officials.
Moreover he termed the bjp raking up the matter aggressively to attack him as “childish". A top official in the CID department said that all people named in the enquiry report have acted in an “anti-CID" and “anti-government" manner which is why the food items could not be served to the VVIPs.
