The Cabinet expansion in Himachal Pradesh will be done after consultation with the central BJP leaders, Chief Minister Jai Ram Thakur said on Friday.
A day after the saffron party's massive victory in the state, Thakur told the media, "The cabinet expansion will be done after consulting party leaders as and when its requirement is felt."
Replying to a question, the CM said, "I have sought report (regarding anti party activities) of Anil Sharma... We will discuss what action is to be taken against Anil Sharma, who is technically still a BJP MLA."
Asked if in the coming Assembly bypoll for Pachhad and Dharamshala seats, shouldn't a law be enacted making it mandatory to get the expenditure from the party responsible for the bypoll, the CM said: "It's a good suggestion but still no such provision is there. It's the work of election commission of India (EC) to decide whether this provision should be made or not?"
