Day After Chief Minister Quit, Key Uttarakhand Meet To Pick New Leader
The BJP's 57 Uttarakhand legislators are scheduled to choose a new leader today who is likely to become the state's eleventh Chief Minister. The development follows Tirath Singh Rawat's resignation from the post yesterday, four months after taking charge, amid infighting in the party's state unit. Uttarakhand is due for its next Assembly election in less than a year.
