Uttarakhand Congress released 53 candidates in the first list, suspense on Harish, Harak and Anukriti
The electoral board in Uttarakhand is completely laid. Meanwhile, Congress has released its first list of candidates in Uttarakhand. The names of 53 candidates are included in this list of Congress released on Saturday night. But it is worth noting that the list does not include the names of high-profile leaders like Harish Rawat, former Chief Minister of the state and Harak Singh Rawat, who recently joined the Congress by rebelling against the BJP, and his daughter-in-law. If sources are to be believed, the churning related to the selection of the assembly constituency for these leaders is going on in the Congress party. While party state president Ganesh Godiyal will contest from Srinagar assembly seat. It is expected that Ranjit Rawat, who is preparing from Ramnagar, will have to vacate this ground for Harish Rawat and enter the battle from his old area i.e. Salt. It may be announced in the second list of candidates.

Here are 53 candidates of Congress
Let us tell you that the term of the 70-seat U
ttarakhand Legislative Assembly is ending on 23 March. In the 2017 assembly elections, the BJP formed the government with a thumping majority by winning 57 seats, while the opposition Congress got only 11 seats. Trivendra Singh Rawat became the Chief Minister, but after four years removing him, the BJP first made Tirath Singh Rawat and just a few months later Pushkar Singh Dhami as the Chief Minister of Uttarakhand.
