Himachal Pradesh Congress today took out a protest march after a woman officer was shot dead allegedly by a hotel owner in Kasauli town.
Assistant Town and Country Planner Shail Bala Sharma had yesterday gone to supervise the demolition of unauthorised construction at Kasauli's Narayani Guest House where its owner Vijay Singh allegedly shot at her. She later succumbed to injuries.
The procession was led by HPCC chief Sukhvinder Singh Sukhoo. Congress workers raised slogans against the government for its "utter failure to maintain law and order in the state".
Addressing the workers, Sukkhu said, "law and order situation had worsened in the state and there is no check on the nefarious activities of the law breakers."
