This time the representation of Uttarakhand has been increased in the Congress Working Committee. Congress National President Mallikarjun Kharge has inducted former Chief Minister Harish Rawat as a permanent invitee and former state president Ganesh Godial as a special invitee to the Congress Working Committee.
Being the in-charge of Uttarakhand, Devendra Yadav is also included in the working committee. This proved once again that Harish Rawat still has a strong hold on the party high command. Importantly, Ganesh Godial is also considered to be of Harish Rawat camp.
Rawat has been the main pillar of Congress in the state
At this time in the State Congress, even though efforts are being made to show everything is fine on the surface, but inside it is not like that. At present, there are many factions in the Congress. Harish Rawat has been the main pillar of the Congress in the state for a long time. Giving preference to his political experience, the high command has kept faith in him and included him in the Congress Working Committee as a permanent invitee.
Ganesh Godial also succeeded in making a place in the working committee
What is special this time is that former state Congress president Ganesh Godial has also succeeded in making a place in the working committee. The stature of Ganesh Godial has been increasing continuously in the Congress for some time now. He has also been appointed as a member of the screening committee by the party in Rajasthan some time ago.
By including Godial in the working committee, the Congress has tried to maintain regional balance in Uttarakhand. The previous working committee included only Harish Rawat from Uttarakhand, who comes from Kumaon division. This time Congress has also given representation to Garhwal in the working committee in the form of Godiyal.
