The outgoing chief minister Trivendra Singh Rawat tried his best to hide his emotions while interacting with his supporters at his residence before heading to Raj Bhawan to submit his resignation. He kept a cheerful countenance and asked those surrounding him to keep their chin up. However his suppressed anguish on losing the chair surfaced on his face and utterances. “The momentum was going in the right direction but it has been broken now.
We had recently launched schemes like giving co-ownership right in the husband’s property to the women and Ghasyari Kalyan Yojana. I hope the new incumbent will keep up the tempo,’’ he said. On one occasion he said, “While we were busy at work here some elements kept on building a negative opinion in Delhi. We erred in managing things.’’
