BJP central leadership has asked Uttarakhand unit to look into the matter immediately. This is not the first time Rawat has raised concerns over functioning of Dhami-led govt.
With leadership crisis — BJP changed CMs twice in 4 months last year — becoming a poll issue, ruling party is going overboard not to allow Dhami’s predecessors to overshadow him.
Trivendra Rawat wrote to BJP chief Nadda, stating he doesn’t want to contest under 'existing political circumstances', but would work towards the party’s return to power.
While BJP leaders frequently invoke Gen. Rawat’s name to buttress their pledge for state's development, Congress has demanded Bharat Ratna, wants 'chance' to implement his vision.
CM Tirath Singh Rawat was at the meeting of VHP, which was called to decide on whether an agitation should be launched to push the govt on withdrawing the Act.
In episode 699 of 'Cut The Clutter', Shekhar Gupta traces the political instability in Uttarakhand, and explains why BJP has never been able to form a stable government in the hill state.
BJP gen secy & central observer Dushyant Gautam says Rawat will be given role at national level, and his resignation shouldn’t be viewed as a statement on his work as CM.
Uttarakhand has had 8 CMs so far, including Nityanand Swami (2000-2001) and Bhagat Singh Koshyari (2001-02), who occupied the chair before the state had its first election.
No nation other than China can negotiate one-on-one with Trump on an equal footing. That’s why the middle powers who so far formed the core of multilateral bodies now feel orphaned.
