It is understood that the Rawat could be given an important organizational role in the Bharatiya Janata Party, sources added.

Uttarakhand is scheduled for assembly polls in 2022. And Rawat is likely to be accommodated in the role of party's General Secretary or Vice-president. He could also be offered the position of the state in-charge of the party for any of the states which are scheduled for polls soon.
