INFO:

The Leader of the Opposition and other BJP MLAs this morning met Himachal Pradesh Governor Shiv Pratap Shukla, seeking a test of strength for the Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu-led government in the state Assembly. This comes a day after the BJP managed to pull off a victory for its candidate in the lone Rajya Sabha seat. The BJP's win was the result of cross-voting by Congress MLAs and a draw of lots that went in its favour.
