Itanagar: Arunachal Pradesh Education Minister TapangTaloh has criticised the role of Governor JP Rajkhowa and blamed him for the present political turmoil in the state.
Addressing a public meeting at Pangin in East Siang district on Thursday, the minister asserted that the state needs a governor who works for development and acts as per the provision of the Constitution.
“Unfortunately, the present Governor has single agenda to destabilise the democratically elected and people-friendly government of Arunachal Pradesh and it is proven time and again. Our forefathers have fought to make India free from the clutches of British rulers and now it is high time to safeguard our Constitution,” he added.
“The governor had preponed the Assembly session murdering democracy and to encourage a section of legislators to revolt against the democratically elected government,” Taloh remarked, adding, the Governor had been doing it at the behest of the BJP government at the Centre, official sources informed on Friday.
Terming Rajkhowa as “anti developmenta”, Taloh stated that he was encroaching upon all executive business that hampers the state’s development activities. (UNI)
