Himachal Pradesh BJP leader Jai Ram Thakur met the state chief electoral officer along with other party MLAs on Tuesday and urged him to take cognisance of a complaint about alleged violation of the model code of conduct by the Congress government and initiate appropriate action, reported news wire PTI.

As per the report, lashing out at Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu, he alleged that the Congress made "false promises to befool women". Thakur, who is the leader of opposition in the state assembly, said that no provision has been made in the budget for giving Rs 1500 per month to women in the age group of 18 to 59 but still the CM announced at a press conference that the eligible women would start getting Rs 1500 per month from April, knowing well that code of conduct would come into force and even the first instalment would not be disbursed.
