Chhattisgarh (India): Health Minister of Chhattisgarh TS Singhdeo will be the first deputy CM of the state. The Congress President has approved his appointment on Wednesday night. This decision has been taken after the day-long Congress meeting in Delhi on Wednesday.
Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel has congratulated Singhdev. He tweeted and wrote, we are ready. Congratulations to Maharaja Saheb. This decision of the Congress is being linked to the upcoming assembly elections. It is believed that this is an attempt to pacify the angry camp.
TS Singhdev wanted to become the Chief Minister of Chhattisgarh. It is being claimed that at the time of government formation, it was decided that Baghel would remain the CM for the first two and a half years and then Singhdev for two and a half years. But this did not happen.
Angered by this, Singh Dev left the Panchayat and Rural Ministry on 16 August 2022. He left the ministry by writing a four-page-long letter to Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel.
