CM’s Become Skittles in Uttarakhand, Why? Dhami Replaces Rawat
Pushkar Singh Dhami is the new rabbit the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has pulled out of the hat to anoint as the new chief minister of Uttarakhand barely eight months ahead of the state assembly polls.
He replaces Tirath Singh Rawat who was in office for less than four months after taking over from Trivendra Singh Rawat. Dhami will be the third BJP chief minister in the last four and a half years after the party came to power in 2017 with a thumping majority.
It is also a repeat of history for the BJP that had brought back Major General (Retired) Bhuwan Chandra Khanduri in 2011 to replace Ramesh Pokhariyal Nishank some months ahead of the assembly polls. Having been made the chief minister after the party’s victory in 2007, Khanduri had quit the post following the 2009 Lok Sabha debacle where the BJP had lost all five seats.
