Uttarakhand goes to polls in shadow of dharam sansad row
- 2 years ago
About two months before the Uttarakhand Assembly election, the hilly state grabbed national headlines for hate speeches given at a dharam sansad (religious congregation) held in Haridwar.
Coming so close to the assembly election, the dharam sansad was considered to be a major factor in the Uttarakhand polls, and helped the Congress against the ruling BJP. However, the hate speeches at the dharam sansad did not find resonance in the election campaign.
