Pratibha has demanded PM Modi to declare the ongoing disaster in Himachal as a national disaster

State Congress President and former MP Pratibha Singh has demanded from Prime Minister Narendra Modi to declare the ongoing disaster in the state as a national disaster and to issue a special economic package to the state, as passed unanimously in the monsoon session of the state assembly.
Expressing concern over the loss of life and property due to heavy rains and landslides in the state, Pratibha Singh has also urged everyone to take full precautions for their safety. She has said that until the weather becomes normal and the havoc of rain ends, everyone will have to be very cautious so that any loss can be avoided.
Pratibha Singh has called upon Congress leaders and workers to extend all possible help to the people affected by the disaster and said that this is the time to help each other and move forward by joining hands.
Pratibha Singh has also urged BJP leaders to cooperate with the state government to deal with the natural disaster in the state. During this disaster, they should not indulge in any kind of politics and provide all possible support to the state government for relief work.
Pratibha Singh has urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi that since he considers Himachal Pradesh as his second home, he should provide special financial help to the disaster-affected Himachal Pradesh. This time too, the state is facing losses worth crores. Reconstruction of disaster-affected roads, bridges, restoration of drinking water and electricity supply is a big challenge and the state government is working day and night to overcome this challenge. The state government is carrying out relief and reconstruction work with great promptness with its limited resources. She has requested the central government to provide all possible help to the state.
