new Delhi. Discussions took place at the residence of Union Home Amit Shah here on Sunday regarding the formation of the BJP government in Uttarakhand. Top BJP leadership and leaders from Uttarakhand gathered at Shah’s residence to finalize the name of the chief minister and the rest of the cabinet.
BJP President JP Nadda and National General Secretary (Organisation) B.L. Santosh participated in the discussion. Caretaker Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami, Uttarakhand BJP President Madan Kaushik, former Chief Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal ‘Nishank’ also participated in the meeting. Satpal Maharaj, the minister of Uttarakhand and one of the contenders for the post, was also in the discussion.
A party insider said, “The names of the chief minister and the minister will be finalized and the state leaders present at the meeting will be informed. The central observers will apprise the legislature party about the wishes of the party leadership and the chief minister will be elected.” “
The suspense over the name of the Chief Minister of Uttarakhand is likely to end soon, 10 days after the results of the assembly elections were announced. Party insiders claim that the defeat of the incumbent Dhami from Khatima is the main reason for the delay in the election of the new Chief Minister and the delay in the formation of the new government in Uttarakhand.
“After Dhami’s defeat, the party leadership will first take a call on whether he will be given another chance to lead the party to a historic victory,” he said.
The BJP has appointed Defense Minister Rajnath Singh and Minister of State for External Affairs Meenakshi Lekhi as central observers for the election of the Legislature Party leader. BJP retained power in Uttarakhand for the second time by winning 47 out of 70 seats.
