Who is the new CM of Uttarakhand
Uttarakhand Election Result 2022: The name of the new Chief Minister of Uttarakhand can be stamped by March 20. On behalf of the BJP state organization, the newly elected MLAs are being instructed to be available in Dehradun after Holi. Despite getting a majority in Uttarakhand on March 10, the BJP high command has not started the process of selecting the Leader of the House. Party sources said that the high command is in favor of calling a meeting of the legislature party only after Holi. It is believed that the meeting of the legislature party can be called on March 19 or 20.
It is understood that being Holashtak till March 17 is the main reason for this. At the same time, the high command does not want to allow situations like change of three CMs like last time in choosing a new Chief Minister. Due to this, the party is working on every angle in the election of the new leader.
Joshi and Vijayvargiya submitted the report: Sources said that BJP’s Uttarakhand election in-charge and Union Minister Prahlad Joshi and National General Secretary Kailash Vijayvargiya have given their report to the high command in Delhi. Meanwhile, the delay in the selection of the Leader of the House has increased the beating of the faces involved in the Chief Minister’s race.
Many leaders including Satpal Maharaj, Subodh Uniyal have reached Delhi, while some leaders are engaged in the siege of MLAs in the state itself. Along with this, the process of offering seats for Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami on behalf of the MLAs and meeting them has intensified.
Observers not appointed: BJP sources said – appointments of observers are yet to be done regarding the selection of the Leader of the House. Two days ago, there were discussions on social media to make Union Minister Piyush Goyal and Dharmendra Pradhan as observers. But BJP state president Madan Kaushik says that no observer has been appointed yet.
If the Himachal formula is adopted, the MLA will become CM: BJP sources say that a section of the party is in favor of handing over power to Dhami again. But if the party adopts the Himachal formula in Uttarakhand, then the campaign to hand over power to Dhami may be weakened. In Himachal Pradesh, BJP won under the leadership of Prem Kumar Dhumal, but Dhumal was defeated and the high command made Jai Ram Thakur the chief minister from among the MLAs.
Lobbying on the pretext of congratulations: After the victory in the elections, most of the party’s MLAs have reached Dehradun after expressing their gratitude to the public in the area. On Sunday, six MLAs met Chief Minister Pushkar Dhami, while two MLAs Nishank and three met former Chief Minister Trivendra Rawat. However, all the MLAs say that they had gone to congratulate the leaders on the party’s thumping victory. But experts are seeing it as lobbying for the chief minister’s chair on the pretext of congratulations.
Dr. Nishank also left for Delhi
in the midst of discussions MP and former Chief Minister Dr. Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank has also left for Delhi on Sunday afternoon. It is being told that he can meet top party leaders during his Delhi tour.
Legislature party meeting will be held on March 19 or 20.
Party sources said that the high command is in favor of convening a meeting of the legislature party only after Holi. It is believed that the meeting of the legislature party can be called on March 19 or 20. The name of the Leader of the House will be stamped in this meeting. The meeting is expected to be held at the BJP headquarters. The deadline for government formation in Uttarakhand is 23 March.
High command serious on rhetoric
The BJP high command is being said to be serious for lobbying and raising slogans in support of the leaders regarding the Chief Minister. Recently, some pro-workers had raised slogans in support of their respective leaders at the BJP headquarters. At the same time, some leaders are engaged in lobbying. Sources said that the high command has instructed the state leadership to stop such sloganeering.
Legislature party meeting regarding the selection of Leader House will be held only after Holi. The observers have not yet been nominated by the party high command. MLAs are also being asked to reach Doon after Holi.
