Hello
The governor has prohibited official visits without CM's authorization but has left the door open for personal matters.
Conflicts between governors and elected governments are new. The present Governor, Arif Mohammed Khan, and the Pinarayi Vijayan government, too, are at loggerheads. What were such incidents in the past? What are the constitutional powers of the governor? When should the governor use his/her discretionary powers? Here's a quick look into such aspects:
The General Administration Department, under the direct control of the Chief Minister, has issued four government orders, including three on appointments, sought by the Raj Bhavan.
Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has accepted the explanation of the employees who are also leaders of left-wing organisations.
In a brief ceremony held at Raj Bhavan, Governor Arif Mohammed Khan administered the oath of office to Desai.
Sources say the Raj Bhavan is looking for the services of lawyers who have experience in conducting cases pertaining to universities.
The High Court had ruled that the government has the authority to submit a three-member panel for appointing the VC.
The Telangana High Court on Wednesday directed the State government to conduct Republic Day celebrations in a grand manner, with a ceremonial parade, as per the instructions issued by the Central government.
The drastic legislative bid was resorted to in the wake of tense ties between Khan and the Pinarayi Vijayan Government over a slew of issues.
After the response is received, the Bill may be sent to the President for consideration, if it is found necessary to do so.
