Dehradun, 27th Jan. Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami on Thursday filed his nominations from the Khatima Assembly seat for the upcoming assembly polls.
CM Dhami offered prayers at a local temple and held a door-to-door campaign in Khatima before filing his nominations.
He is fielded against PCC working president Bhuwan Chandra Kapri once again in Khatima. Dhami had defeated him in the 2017 assembly elections by a margin of 2709 votes. He has been winning the seat since the 2012 assembly elections when he had defeated Devendra Chand of the Congress by more than 5000 votes.
Dhami also faces the challenge of breaking the trend of incumbent chief ministers losing at the polls in Uttarakhand.
Uttarakhand assembly elections are scheduled to be held on February 14. The counting of votes will take place on March 10.
