BJYM protests near Cong office, seeks HP CM's resignation

Bhartiya Janta Yuva Morcha workers staged a protest near the Congress headquarters here today, demanding the resignation of Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh after he was charge-sheeted by the CBI in a disproportionate assets case.

The protesters raised slogans against the Congress chief minister.

The protesters were stopped and taken away as they tried to demonstrate in front of the party office on Akbar Road.

Leading the protesters, Delhi BJYM president Sunil Yadav said that Virbhadra Singh must resign from his post in view of "corruption" charges against him.

"Singh misused his position...He has no moral right to continue as the chief minister," Yadav said.
