No govt office to be shifted out of Shimla, says Himachal CM Sukhu

Shimla, Sep 23 (PTI) The Himachal Pradesh government will not shift any public office out of Shimla to reduce congestion in the state capital, Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu said on Saturday.

In a written reply to a question by Congress MLA Kewal Singh Pathania, Sukhu told the assembly that neither any decision has been taken by the government nor suggestions received from any department in this regard.

Pathania had asked if the government was considering shifting some offices out of Shimla in view of congestion in the city and loss of lives and property during the monsoon.
