वीरभद्र परिवार व सुक्खू में विवाद करीब नौ साल पहले शुरू हुआ था जब सुक्खू को प्रदेश कांग्रेस का अध्यक्ष बनाया गया था। अध्यक्ष बनते ही सुक्खू ने संगठन में फेरबदल कर वीरभद्र समर्थकों को हटाकर अपने लोगों को जिम्मेदारी दी थी। इससे वीरभद्र सिंह नाराज हो गए। लंबे समय तक वीरभद्र व सुक्खू में विवाद चलता रहा। 2017 के विधानसभा चुनाव के दौरान वीरभद्र सिंह ने अपना प्रभाव दिखाया और असर यह हुआ कि उनके नेतृत्व में ही चुनाव हुए। यह अलग बात है कि पार्टी इस दौरान बेहतर प्रदर्शन नहीं कर पाई और प्रदेश में भाजपा की सरकार बन गई। चुनाव के दौरान पार्टी के प्रयास के बावजूद वीरभद्र व सुक्खू एक मंच पर नहीं आए। 2019 में पार्टी ने सुक्खू को प्रदेश अध्यक्ष के पद से हटा दिया। इससे सुक्खू समर्थक निराश हो गए। समर्थकों ने लोकसभा चुनाव से दूरी बना ली और प्रचार में भी शामिल नहीं हुए। जागरण संवाददाता, शिमला। हिमाचल विधानसभा चुनाव में स्पष्ट बहुमत मिलने के बावजूद हिमाचल प्रदेश में कांग्रेस को मुख्यमंत्री चेहरा चुनने में काफी मशक्कत करनी पड़ी। यहां तक कि पार्टी का केंद्रीय नेतृत्व बंद कमरों में बैठकें कर रहा था तो बाहर नेताओं के समर्थक नारेबाजी करते रहे। पार्टी में एक गुट चुनाव प्रचार समिति के अध्यक्ष सुखविंदर सिंह सुक्खू को मुख्यमंत्री बनाने की मांग कर रहा था, जबकि दूसरा गुट पूर्व मुख्यमंत्री स्वर्गीय वीरभद्र सिंह की पत्नी लोकसभा सदस्य और पार्टी की प्रदेश अध्यक्ष प्रतिभा सिंह को मुख्यमंत्री बनाने पर अड़ा रहा। पार्टी ने बीच का रास्ता निकाल कर सुखविंदर सिंह सुक्खू को मुख्यमंत्री व नेता प्रतिपक्ष रहे मुकेश अग्निहोत्री को उपमुख्यमंत्री बनाने की निर्णय लिया। पार्टी में एक गुट चुनाव प्रचार समिति के अध्यक्ष सुखविंदर सिंह सुक्खू को मुख्यमंत्री बनाने की मांग कर रहा था जबकि दूसरा गुट पूर्व मुख्यमंत्री स्वर्गीय वीरभद्र सिंह की पत्नी लोकसभा सदस्य और पार्टी की प्रदेश अध्यक्ष प्रतिभा सिंह को मुख्यमंत्री बनाने पर अड़ा रहा।
