Sukhu cabinet divided over HP land holding act

This amendment aims to address a request from the Radha Soami Satsang Beas (RSSB), an influential religious and spiritual organization, to transfer the Bhota Charitable Hospital to its sister organization, the Maharaja Jagat Singh Medical Relief Society, in the Hamirpur district.

Owing to the differences, the proposal has been put on hold. The BJP has already opposed this move by the Congress-led state government.
