Results for: Samosa Controversy

The Himachal Pradesh government has banned the sharing of photos featuring Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu without prior approval. This move comes amidst the ongoing ‘missing samosa’ controversy, which has seen the BJP criticize the Congress-led government for its priorities. The order, issued by the Director of Information and Public Relations, states that the ban is intended to protect the CM’s image, but some see it as a move to control the narrative.

A routine snack order for Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu at the CID headquarters has snowballed into a full-blown political controversy. The CID launched an investigation after samosas and cake intended for the CM were mistakenly served to his security staff, leading to accusations of ‘anti-government’ behavior and a public spat between the ruling Congress and the opposition BJP.
