Meerut, Sep 30: Governor Satya Pal Malik on Friday said he will neither join any political party nor contest elections post his retirement from the current post, putting an end to speculations that he would be joining the Rashtriya Lok Dal (RLD).
Malik completed his tenure as Governor of Meghalaya on Friday.
On his post-retirement plans, Malik said, “I have no plans yet. I will take part in activities only if they are related to farmers. Neither will I join any party nor will I contest any election.” Malik had hit the headlines for supporting the farmers agitating against the Centre’s three agricultural laws and putting the government in the dock despite occupying the governor’s office.
He had also raised the issue of alleged corruption in Jammu and Kashmir.
