  • Department of Information & Public Relations
    Department of Information & Public Relations Government of Uttarakhand 12- E.C.Road, Dehradun Press-Note Dehradun. 23rd August, 2011. The Chief Minister of Uttarakhand Dr. Ramesh Pokhriyal ‘Nishank’ came to know about the loss occurred due to the cloudburst-incident after reaching village Kaarligaad near Sahastradhara on Tuesday. The CM announced a financial-aid of Rs. 1 lakh each to the family members of those killed in the cloud-burst-incident. While talking to the villagers who were present there, CM Dr. Nishank assured them that the state government was committed to ensuring their safety and further added that if needed, they would be shifted to any other safer place. He directed the district administration that the effected families should temporarily be shifted to some safer place in view of the bad weather and also probable danger of repetition of such incidents. Disaster Management Minister Trivendra Singh Rawat and MLA Ganesh Joshi were also present on the occasion. The officers present there told that five people were killed in an incident of cloudburst that took place at village Kaarligaad late yester night at around 12.30. Besides, two panchayati buildings, one aanganbaadi, two pedestrian bridges, and a motor bridge also collapsed. Bodies of 3 people had so far been recovered. While returning from the spot, CM Dr. Nishank met the local residents and businessmen at Sahastradhara market. While talking to a tea-stall-owner Khadag Singh, the CM asked him about the status of Atal Khaddyanna Yojna; and also asked him as to whether he was getting ration at cheaper rates under the scheme.

  • Uphill Rescue
    Uphill rescue The top change in Uttarakhand is indicative of the limits of running a State from New Delhi our days short of four years after he was sworn in, Trivendra Singh Rawat was asked by the Bharati- Fya Janata Party (BJP) central leadership to make way for Tirath Singh Rawat as Chief Minister of Uttarak- hand. The new CM was sworn in on Wednesday. The outgoing Mr. Rawat failed to keep the house in order; party workers and MLAs had distanced themselves from him. In fact, his very selection as CM in 2017 had less to do with his popularity or leadership skills than the central leadership’s liking for him. He was seen as an imposition from above. Far from building bridges with the BJP workers and MLAs, his style of functioning further alienated him from the party ecosystem. Party leaders felt ignored in decision making, and power was increasingly concentrated. While party functionaries were sidelined, governance fell more into the hands of bureaucrats. The BJP has 57 MLAs in the 70-member As- sembly and at least half of them had turned against the outgoing CM. Allegations of corruption hastened his downfall, but the determining factor was his singular failure to hold the party flock together. The State goes to elections next year and the BJP could not have afford- ed to let him lead it. Success or failure will now be in the kitty of the incoming Mr. Rawat. The change of guard in a State, giving up on its hand- picked person, is uncharacteristic of the BJP leader- ship, and hence marks discontinuity.
