Former Uttarakhand Cabinet minister Harak Singh Rawat joined the Congress on Friday, just days ahead of state polls. Harak Singh Rawat had rebelled against the Congress government led by Harish Rawat in 2016 and had joined the BJP.

He was expelled by the BJP recently after he allegedly put pressure on the party leadership to give the ticket to his kin for next month's Assembly polls, a charge denied by the leader.
