The Congress party has been run by people of the same family. They have looted the earnings of the people of the country and filled their coffers. During the rule of Congress, the morale of traitors and stone-pelters was high. Congress has sacrificed the national interest by engaging in vote-bank politics. For them, their selfishness has been the priority, not the country," CM Dhami said.
