The rhetoric has once again intensified in the politics of Uttarakhand. This time the root of the controversy has become a viral letter, due to which Congress and BJP have come face to face. But the interesting thing is that the truth of the letter on the basis of which Congress is cornering the government has not been made clear till now.
Congress State President Ganesh Godiyal held a press conference at the party headquarters on Friday (May 1) and made many serious allegations against the Dhami government. He raised questions on the presence of police officers in a bar located on Rajpur Road and also raised the issue of not being able to meet the Governor.
The biggest issue was an alleged letter viral on social media, which is being linked to the name of Arvind Pandey. In this letter, questions have reportedly been raised on the working style of the Chief Minister.
Big question on the authenticity of the viral letter
The most important question amid the entire controversy is whether this letter is genuine? Neither has it been officially confirmed yet nor is it clear who actually wrote it.
Political experts say that making allegations on the basis of any document without verification raises many questions in itself. If this letter is true, what was the way to make it public? And if it is wrong, then who made it viral?
Questions were also raised on the role of Congress
The role of Congress in this matter has also come under question. It is being said that this letter could be a part of the internal communication of BJP. In such a situation, the question arises that how did it reach Congress?
There is discussion in political circles that Congress is trying to take political advantage by giving more importance to this issue. Some analysts even said that this has become a situation like “Abdullah going crazy in a foreign marriage”.
Arvind Pandey’s silence increased the suspense
Till now no clear response has come from the MLA in whose name this letter is going viral, i.e. Arvind Pandey. His silence has made this entire matter more mysterious. If the letter is genuine, it may point to internal differences in the BJP. But if it is fake, then it could also be part of a bigger conspiracy.
In the press conference, Ganesh Godiyal has demanded a SIT investigation into this matter. But the question is also arising whether this demand is for an impartial investigation or a strategy to put pressure on the government. Because demanding investigation on the basis of a letter without authenticity is also being considered a political move.
BJP’s silence increased the stir
Till now no official statement has come from Pushkar Singh Dhami or BJP in this entire matter. This is the reason why the market of speculation has become more heated. Political experts believe that in the coming days, BJP will clarify its stand on this issue, after which the situation may become more clear.
At present, this issue has completely dominated the politics of Uttarakhand. Amidst the allegations and counter-allegations, questions are being raised in the minds of common people as to what is the truth. Until the authenticity of this viral letter is revealed, it would not be wrong to say that the truth seems to be left behind in this noise of politics.
