Triangular contest on cards in Uttarakhand Assembly polls

Uttarakhand, a ‘two party choice’ state till the last assembly election, could see a three-cornered contest.

In the coming polls, Congress must be hoping that the momentum it gained in the 2009 Lok Sabha polls will bring it to power in Dehra Dun. BJP will be looking at BC Khanduri to deliver the state for it.

But an important story of the election could be the performance of BSP, which has emerged as a strong player in the plains of Haridwar and Udham Singh Nagar.
