Punjab Governor should apologize to people for creating obstruction

Accusing the Punjab Governor Governor Banwarilal Purohit of acting at the behest of BJP, Punjab Agriculture Minister Kuldeep Singh Dhaliwal on Tuesday said that the Governor is taking unconstitutional action. 

He said that Governor’s letter sent to the Punjab government was actually drafted from Delhi BJP Headquarters.

Defending the appointment of Dr. Satbir Singh Gosal as Vice-Chancellor of Punjab Agricultural University (PAU), the minister asked the governor to apologize to the Punjabis at once for this unconstitutional action. He said that the AAP government will not tolerate any interference in its work.

“The Governor is violating the dignity of his constitutional office. If he wants to do politics then there are elections in Gujarat and Himachal, he must contest elections there,” Dhaliwal told the reporters.

He said that before taking this action, the Governor should have read the University Act and if it’s an ‘illegal appointment’ then he should clarify that why the post of VC of Ludhiana University has been vacant for one year.
