The Uttarakhand Congress is to get a new president in place of Pritam Singh, but the announcement of the new president is repeatedly postponed due to the Punjab crisis, as Harish Rawat is currently the Congress in-charge of Punjab. Many names are coming out for the new state president, but the name of Ganesh Gondiyal, a two-time MLA who belongs to Pauri at present, is being told ahead in the race. At the same time, the current state president Pritam Singh, who belongs to the tribal community, is forwarding the name of Aryendra Sharma, a former associate of Narayan Dutt Tiwari. Congress High Command can make Harish Rawat its CM face, Pritam Singh can also get a big responsibility in the new government.
