New Delhi/Shimla, Oct 31(UNI) Ending days of speculation, the BJP President Amit Shah on Tuesday named former Chief minister Prem Kumar Dhumal as party's 'Chief Ministerial' face for the assembly elections in the hilly state.
Shah made the announcement while addressing an election meeting at Rajgarh in Sirmaur district.
The party sources in Delhi said naming Dhumal as the party's face on the eve of elections would give further edge to the saffron party in the campaign.
"Dhumal has the image of a performer. And for last five years, Himachal has suffered from misgovernance under Congress," a party leader said here.
