Uttarakhand Congress claims CM Rawat can't get elected, crisis is looming

A former Congress MLA has warned that Uttarakhand was heading towards a "constitutional crisis" as BJP chief minister Tirath Singh Rawat - who took the oath in March this year and needs to win an assembly seat by September 10 - cannot contest bypolls as per law since assembly elections are less than a year away. Uttarakhand is set to go to polls early next year.
