Explained: Why The Gairsain Move By The Trivendra Singh Rawat Government Is Making Headlines In Uttarakhand by Sumati Mehrishi - Mar 8, 2021 12:13 PM Uttarakhand Chief Minister Trivendra Singh Rawat. Snapshot The BJP is moving one step closer to fulfilling its vision on Gairsain through administration changes. The declaration of Gairsain as the third commissionerate has seen the Congress and the AAP opposing the move. Last week, the Trivendra Singh Rawat-led government in Uttarakhand made an announcement. Gairsain was declared a new administrative division of the state, a third commissionerate. A commissioner and a DIG will be deployed in Gairsain. The âsurpriseâ announcement (as how a section of the media sees it) has come after Garsain was declared as Uttarakhand's summer capital last year. The mandal is an assimilation of two districts each from Garhwal mandal and Kumaon mandal. These are: Almora and Bageshwar (in Kumaon) and Rudrapyarag and Chamoli (in Garhwal). Gairsain, the town, would now be the third administrative division, a third commissionerate.
