Dehradun, March 26 -- Veerendra Rawat
This is one reason why Congress has been unable to decide its candidate from Haridwar. It has been pressurising veteran party leader Harish Rawat to contest but Rawat is seeking Congress ticket for his son Veerendra Rawat. If unconfirmed reports are to be believed, Harish Rawat has more or less managed to convince the party high command to give ticket to his son Veerendra Rawat from Haridwar whereas the party is very likely to announce former MP Mahendra Pal from Nainital. Nainital seat also has around 19 to 20 percent Muslim votes. Some of the assembly segments like Haldwani are such which have a strong Congress base.
