Summary:

Dehradun, Apr 13 (PTI) Discontent is brewing in the Uttarakhand Congress following the recent organisational revamp of the state unit with a section of party MLAs likely to meet here soon.

Three-time MLA from Dharchula Harish Dhami, who is among the disgruntled legislators, on Wednesday accused the party leadership of ignoring merit in the new appointments.

Though the MLAs were scheduled to meet here this evening, some could not reach on time.
