Why is the burning sensation in the chest like a storm in the eyes? Is everything going well in Uttarakhand Congress?
The factionalism within the Congress in the state is not taking the name of peak instead of stopping. State Congress President Karan Mahara targeted former cabinet minister and MLA Tilak Raj Behar and former Leader of Opposition Pritam Singh over regional and caste balance in the organization in the state. On the other hand, Pritam Singh, without delay in retaliating, advised Mahara to speak at the appropriate forum within the party. Talking to reporters, State Congress President Karan Mahara countered the statement of Kichha MLA and former minister Tilakraj Behad regarding the neglect of regional and caste balance in Congress in the state. Without naming Behad, he was accused of praising BJP leader and Union Minister Ajay Bhatt. He said that in the BJP which is being praised, balance in the organization is not made an issue like this. When Ajay Bhatt was the BJP state president, he was also the leader of the opposition.
He also targeted former Leader of Opposition Pritam Singh for his statement regarding the state in-charge. He said that the statement on the charge is unnecessary. The in-charge has been posted by the party high command. The statement against him will be considered against the high command. Congress workers are agitating every week in the state only on the instructions of the in-charge. Starting from Joshimath, the party is raising all the issues prominently.
On the other hand, Pritam Singh, former Leader of Opposition and MLA from Chakrata for the sixth consecutive time, hit back at State Congress President Karan Mahara. Giving advice, he said that Karan Mahara should also keep his point on a proper platform.
If this rule applies to everyone, then the chairman will also have to follow it. He said that the party high command has taken cognizance of the situation in the state from time to time. Every worker of the party is devoted to the national leadership. In response to Mahara’s allegation on Pritam of not visiting the state when he was the state president, he said that he could not do anything, but the new president is more active, so best wishes from his side. On Tilakraj Behad’s statement, he said that there is internal democracy in the Congress.
State executive will now be announced after Karnataka elections
There are indications that it will take more time to declare the state Congress executive. It is believed that now the state executive can be announced after the Karnataka elections. The wait for the new team of State Congress President Karan Mahara is not taking its name. Although, the list of district heads has been declared before the new executive. AICC has also released the list of State President and Coordinators of Congress Internet Media. The list of State Mahila Congress Executive and District Presidents has also been announced.
