Vijay Bahuguna sworn in as chief minister of Uttarakhand
Vijay Bahuguna, the Congress MP from Tehri Garhwal, was Tuesday sworn in as chief minister of Uttarakhand after the Congress leadership overruled dissent by chief ministerial aspirant Harish Rawat, who is learnt to have offered to resign from the union council of ministers.
Uttarakhand chief minister Vijay Bahuguna on Wednesday won the Sitarganj assembly seat by a record margin of 39,954 votes over his nearest BJP rival to retain the top post.
