He rejected claims of divisions within the state BJP and said the party's organisational activities were being carried out collectively.
Four-Lane Highways Will Strengthen Himachal's Connectivity
Responding to questions regarding the quality of construction on highway and four-lane projects, Dr Bindal said there should be no compromise whatsoever on construction quality.
He referred to improvements in travel between Chandigarh and Hamirpur due to four-laning, tunnels and flyovers.
He said the Kangra-Shimla and Matour-Mandi four-lane corridors would be important for Himachal Pradesh's future connectivity and stressed that technical quality and public safety must remain priorities during construction.
BJP Committed to Respect and Empowerment of Women: Bindal
Responding to a question concerning an alleged personal remark against a woman in Una and the subsequent FIR, Dr Bindal said the BJP was fully committed to the dignity and respect of women and did not support objectionable personal remarks against women.
He referred to the law providing 33% reservation for women in the Lok Sabha and State Legislative Assemblies, describing it as an important measure towards increasing women's participation in political decision-making.
Dr Bindal said the BJP would continue strengthening its organisation down to the booth level while raising issues concerning employment, healthcare, roads, financial management and public services in Himachal Pradesh.
