He pointed out the disillusionment among the people, evident from both public opinion and electoral defeats.
Criticizing the Congress government's tactics, Thakur accused them of scapegoating the BJP and alleging financial inducements for defections.

Regarding the upcoming elections, Thakur expressed confidence in BJP's electoral prowess, referencing past victories and record vote shares in Himachal Pradesh.
He condemned the alleged pressure tactics on independent legislators and their families and reiterated their commitment to contest elections alongside the BJP.
Thakur warned that if the BJP wins the forthcoming by-elections, it would spell the end of the Congress government's tenure in Himachal Pradesh.
He rallied support for the BJP's "abki baar, charon paar" slogan, asserting their determination to secure victory in the upcoming polls.
