It is also reported that :

UPA-appointed governors who have six months or less for the tenure to expire are likely to stay while those who have more days in office have been asked to quit by the Centre. Sheila Dikshit (Kerala), Margaret Alva (Rajasthan) and Kamla Beniwal (Gujarat), have been asked to put in their papers. As we told you earlier, Alva is set to speak to President Pranab Mukhejree over the issue. She had also called on Prime Minister Narendra Modi today.

This has happened once again !

After all what are the qualifications for appointment of the Governor of a State. If we look at the names of the persons who have put in their papers they seem all to belong to senior leaders of the Congress.

Now the question arises what is the role of Governor in the State and if he is custodian of constitution of India as he/she is, then why with the change of Government at the Centre cause the removal of the Constitutional head of the provincial government.

It may also be a debatable point if the persons of ruling party like senior/retired/defeated in elections be appointed to this gubernatorial post or not !

Would the BJP follow the same tradition set by Congress to appoint their own party men to these posts is the moot question !

Views/comments of the participants are welcome.

After finding a few gubernatorial places vacant, the 'Good Days' are going to usher in for those BJP stalwarts, who have been waiting in wings to get adjusted in the posts of power. Let us see who gets what !

It is reported that Mr. Ram Naik has been sounded to take over as new governor of Uttar Pradesh soon.
 
Shri O P Kohali, a BJP stalwart has been appointed Governor of Gujarat. The post of governor had fallen vacant after the transfer of incumbent Governor, Mrs. Kamala Beniwal.
 
Beniwal sacked as Mizoram Guv; VK Duggal gets charge​
New Delhi, August 6
Kamla Beniwal, who had a running battle with Narendra Modi when he was Gujarat Chief Minister, was tonight sacked as Governor of Mizoram just two months before her tenure comes to an end.


"The President has directed that Dr (Smt.) Kamla shall cease to hold the office of the Governor of Mizoram,” a Rashtrapati Bhavan communique said tonight, exactly a month after she was shifted to Aizwal from Ahmedabad.


Governor of Manipur V K Duggal has been asked to discharge the functions of the Governor of Mizoram until regular arrangements are made, the communique said.


The sacking order brings to an end the gubernatorial tenure of 87-year-old Congress leader from Rajasthan who battled with the Modi government over the appointment of Lokayukta.


Beniwal appointed retired Justice R A Mehta as Lokayukta in Gujarat against which the state went in appeal to the High Court. PTI

Leaving congress/BJP politics behind, as a jat, I am bit disappointed and sad to know the treatment given to her at end of term. It was matter of 2 months.

Some uneasy questions naturally arise in the minds of the members of the site because the old lady is a veteran Jat political figure. Before two months of expiry of her tenure the step has been taken, Why ?

If she had been chosen to be axed for her role as Governor of Gujarat then why she was not dismissed then and there and why she was transferred to Mizoram !

What unconstitutional act she committed at Mizoram Raj Bhawan that led her dismissal.

People would, in the instant example, want to know the real cause of her dismissal !
 
Dear friend

She made 63 air travels and out of that 53 were to Jaipur ( personal use). Ye hai uska kasoor.
Gujraat mein gov thee tab usne state universities mein bhi state govt ko bypass kar ke appointments ki thee... Ye hai uska kasoor.

Jat figure hai to jaroori nahi ki theek ho ! Jat to Maderna bhi thaa-- lekin rape kiya tha usne ! Jat to chautala bhi hai - Jail mein hai apne galat kaamo ki wajah se!

Friend,

There must be transparency in the action of the Government on such matters.

If this alleged impropriety has been committed as a Governor of Gujrat, then she must have been removed from the post of Governor then and there.

Since she made these trips to Jaipur not after becoming the Governor of Mizoram, why she was first transferred and then dismissed is the cause of concern.

Is it not humiliating ?

Thanks and best wishes,

dear friend

system is not that fast in india...investigation takes time dear firend! Pls try to understand
 
Dr. Sahib, it is pretty simple. She was transferred from Gujarat so that information could be dig out against her from Raj Bhawan to prepare a case for her dismissal. She should have resigned at the time of transfer and that was her mistake becuase she is not smart enough to know the move of Modi government. Congress has done it in the past and this is the case of misuse of government resouces. Therfore her dismissal is justified in the interest of the nation.

Accused by the Opposition of sacking Mizoram governor Kamla Beniwal out of political vendetta, the government on Thursday gave two reasons for its action — the first being that she had cost the Gujarat government Rs. 1,216 crore in central funds by sitting on a crucial bill during her time in the state’s Raj Bhavan.
The second reason, it stated, was her “unethical involvement” in the affairs of a cooperative society in Jaipur — cited in a June 27 report from the Rajasthan government.
Two months shy of completing her term, the 87-year-old Beniwal was sacked on Wednesday, just a month after she was transferred to Mizoram from Gujarat.

The Opposition, including the Congress and NCP, termed her removal an act of “political vendetta” stemming from her running feud with Modi when he was chief minister of the western state.

Congress is getting taste of its own medicine. I am sure they must have overstepped their authority when in power...
