The ghost of the 2002 Gujarat riots continued to haunt Chief Minister Narendra Modi who was grilled for the first time by Supreme Court-appointed SIT this year while his close aide Amit Shah was forced to resign from the cabinet after he came in the CBI net in the Sohrabuddin Sheikh fake encounter case.
But the year, which also saw Gujarat kicking off golden jubilee celebrations to mark the 50th year of its foundation, ended on a happy note for Modi's BJP as it swept the civic and local body polls and reports claiming that the chief minister was given a clean chit by the Special Investigation Team (SIT).
The Modi government was involved in a standoff with Governor Kamla Beniwal over compulsory voting bill for the local body polls. Though the bill was stalled, Gujarat did see the first e-votes of the country being polled in the elections to six municipal corporations held in October
