Dushyant Gautam’s gubernatorial role puts Uttarakhand BJP in a bind amid Ankita Bhandari murder row
The BJP has officially maintained that there is no evidence against Gautam, a Dalit face of the BJP who was a Rajya Sabha MP and a national general secretary.
Rahul Gandhi, the Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha, has written to President Droupadi Murmu urging her to reconsider the appointment of Dushyant Kumar Gautam as Governor of Sikkim. This request comes after Gautam was appointed to the post amid allegations of his involvement in the 2022 Ankita Bhandari murder case in Uttarakhand.
