Pushkar Dhami: Played like Dhoni but gave away own wicket cheaply

Dehradun | Thursday | 10th March, 2022

Summary:

Dehradun, Mar 10 (PTI) Defence Minister Rajnath Singh has compared Pushkar Singh Dhoni to cricketer Mahendra Singh Dhoni.

Dhami, who he said is a “good finisher”.

Dhami was plucked out of obscurity by the Bharatiya Janata Party leadership last July to be made the Uttarakhand chief minister, with just months to go before the party faced the assembly elections.

He also happened to be is party’s second CM replacement in 2021 – earlier Trivendra Singh Rawat was made to make way for Tirath Singh Rawat.

Dhami seems to have justified the BJP’s choice.

The ruling party appears set to form the government in Uttarakhand again, the first time in the state’s 21-year history that a party will come to power for a second term in a row.
