Eight Chief Ministers in twenty years – Uttarakhand has seen political instability since 2000 when the hill state was carved out of Uttar Pradesh.

However, in 2017, defying the ‘jinx’, Trivendra Singh Rawat had shifted to the bungalow, located in a sprawling 10-acre area in the heart of the city. At the time, he had said that he did not give credence to rumours, but had nevertheless decided to make the shift on the second day of the Navratra season, considered auspicious for new beginnings, after conducting a 2-hour long pooja along with his wife and two daughters.
Designed in a ‘pahadi’ style, the bungalow, with 60 rooms, was built in 2010 and comprises of a badminton court, swimming pool, several lawns as well as separate offices for the CM and his team. It was built at a cost of Rs 16 crore.

DEHRADUN: Changing chief ministers midway through a term has not helped any party in Uttarakhand. Analysts are calling the BJP’s latest move a gamble.
Dehradun-based political analyst Yogesh Kumar said: “Apart from ND Tiwari, no CM has been able to complete five years, either due to circumstances or intervention of the central leadership. Common factor is that both BJP and Congress failed to make electoral gains they expected by changing the CM. It’s a big gamble by BJP, with less than a year to go for Assembly elections.”
Only one of the eight CMs in the state completed five years in office. It was the late ND Tiwari from 2002-07.
