Mumbai: K. Shankarnarayanan, who resigned as Maharashtra Governor after being shunted to Mizoram, on Monday suggested that the Centre’s action against him was not in good taste.
He underlined that anything regarding appointment of governors should be done “within the four walls of the Constitution”.
Explaining his decision to quit, the 82-year-old Congress veteran said, “Of course Rashtrapati has the powers to transfer a governor, but then I thought it is not convenient. I decided not to go to Mizoram or any other state. I have my right to resign.”
