Uttarakhand : Weak administration became the reason for Tirath’s resignation from the post of CM
While being CM, Tirath Rawat could not change even a DM. During his tenure of about four months, he neither made any major reshuffle in the Secretariat nor the administrative officers in the field. This is also being judged as his administrative weakness. This habit of his avoiding taking open decisions allowed the bureaucracy to dominate. Usually, as soon as the CM changes, it is common for the district magistrates to be transferred first. In this case, the entire tenure of the Tirath government passed like this. Not a single DM was changed under his rule. The same situation prevailed in the bureaucracy of the Secretariat. Except for a few people, most of them have old charges. He definitely made changes in the count only in the CM Secretariat. Tirath Rawat was not even successful in making his team. Apart from one Principal Consultant, one Consultant, one PRO, two OSDs, no one remained in the team. While many people were standing in the line of OSD, PRO. Despite this, he remained far behind in the matter of selection. This was the reason why his team remained very small and limited. He failed to show his grip in the administrative matter.
