In the wake of the ongoing political crisis in Himachal Pradesh, a series of meetings and discussions were held involving key Congress party leaders and observers. Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu confirmed the stability of the government, stating, "Our government is safe. We have decided on the future course of action." Congress observers, including Bhupesh Baghel, Bhupinder Singh Hooda, and DK Shivakumar, along with Congress MP Rajeev Shukla, met with CM Sukhu to discuss the situation. Congress leader Bhupinder Singh Hooda mentioned, "We have talked with all the leaders," including MLAs, to address the crisis. A 'breakfast meeting' was called by CM Sukhu for all Congress MLAs, signaling an informal yet crucial gathering, with MLA Ashish Butail noting, "It is an important meeting." Amidst these developments, supporters of Himachal Pradesh minister Vikramaditya Singh and state Congress chief Pratibha Singh gathered, showcasing internal party dynamics. Pratibha Singh, addressing the disqualification of 6 Congress MLAs, highlighted its potential impact on the upcoming Lok Sabha elections, stating, "Definitely, why not?" She also acknowledged the challenges faced by the party, stating, "A lot of things remain to be done in Congress...It is true that BJP's working is better than ours," indicating challenges ahead for the party.
