DEHRADUN: A sulking ND Tiwari, who was hoping to get a Congress ticket for himself or his son Rohit Shekhar from the Nainital-Udhamsingh Nagar seat may not end up campaigning in the state after the Congress announced KC Singh Baba as its candidate for the seat. "I am deeply disappointed to know the choice of candidate by the Congress," said Shekhar. "I am sure if the party had given a ticket to my father, then the victory margins would have been huge in the seat."
Even though there are speculations that given his deteriorating health, Tiwari is unlikely to contest as an independent or campaign in the state, Bhawani Bhatt, the veteran leader's OSD told TOI that a final decision would be taken after nominations start on April 12. "Tiwariji was hurt that he was not consulted by the party before the candidate for the seat was announced. He will go by what the people of the state decide he should do."
