While addressing a public gathering in Kangra, Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra said, “We will cancel the Agnipath scheme when our government will be formed at the Centre. We fulfil whatever we promise. In Chhattisgarh also, we promised for the loan waiver of the farmer and it was implemented.”
In its manifesto, Congress has made assurances to the people of Himachal and asserted that they will bring a change to the lives of farmers here the way they have done in Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh.
