I have been MLC, MLA, MP, party state president, and recently chief minister,” he stated after submitting his resignation. "I thank my party president JP Nadda, home minister Amit Shah and Prime Minister Narendra Modi from the core of my heart,” he further added.

A controversy is created as the senior BJP officer gave a hint that the step of resigning was taken because the bypoll couldn’t be held due to the present COVID situation.

 As per the laws, it is said that considering the post a by-election needs to be conducted within six months either by a CM or by a member of the assembly. However, no such decision was made and it is observed that a suggestion is made of conducting precedents that may permit the same.

During his presence in the state capital of Dehradun a lot of other events have also caused many controversies such as the decision of allowing the conduction of the Mahakumbh even when the COVID-19 was on peak, and how can anyone forget about the fraud in testing which was held at a large scale that also during a holy event!

Besides that, his comments on women’s clothing and that the Ganga’s water could cause the prevention of infections are some causes of hatred.

Tirath Singh Rawat resigned from the top job post due to the hidden conflicts in the state unit. The BJP now has 56 MLAs in the 70-member house.
