Re: [rti_india] "Pick-&-Chose Policy for Selection of Governors" "BJP demands Karnataka governor's recall" Did main Opposition BJP do anything for the Criteria and Democratic way of appointing Governors for the States?

 

It appears we have a separate set of posting rules in respect of Sri Vaghela.

Dear Mr Jaitely,

This has reference to the media news:
BJP demands Karnataka governor's recall

In this regard, can you tell the nation as to whether national level major political party and main opposition in the Parliament - BJP - has taken any steps for transparent & democratic selection of Governors for the States so that wrong persons are not selected for gubernatorial position that can play havoc with the State politics & development of the State concerned?

As regard the issue, that Prime Minister should be an elected Member of Parliament and not the Rajya Sabha Member, as is the case with Dr Manmohan Singh, that was raised by BJP during the last general election, you may like to tell the nation action taken for ensuring this demand, if BJP has been really serious on this aspect.

Regards,

BJP demands Karnataka governor's recall
Published: Saturday, Oct 30, 2010, 15:45 IST 
Place: Bangalore | Agency: PTI
Buoyed by the high court verdict upholding disqualification of its 11 rebel MLAs, the BJP today stepped up its attack on Karnataka governor HR Bhardwaj, demanding his immediate recall for "illegal and unconstitutional acts" if he does not step down on his own.
"The governor of Karnataka, if he has got any respect for the Constitution and standards in public life, should quit forthwith in the backdrop of the high court verdict," senior party leader M Venkaiah Naidu told reporters here.
Naidu said if Bhardwaj did not quit on his own, "the Centre, and the Congress, should immediately recall him if they have any respect for the Constitution and Centre-State relations."
Justice VG Sabhahit, third judge of the high court, had yesterday upheld the disqualification of 11 BJP rebel MLAs, after the matter was referred to him following a split verdict by a division bench on the Speaker's action.
Naidu decried the delay in taking action against the governor, which the BJP had demanded when a party delegation met the Prime Minister Manmohan Singh earlier.

He said the prime minister had assured the delegation that he would look into the matter but no action had been taken, indicating support of the UPA government for "the illegal, unconstitutional and unethical acts of the governor".
"The reference made by the court in its judgement about the letter written by the governor to speaker KG Bopaiah to maintain the configuration (the numerical strength of legislature groups) of the House has proved that Bhardwaj was wrong in making such a suggestion," he said.
The governor had come under attack from the BJP for his actions following withdrawal of support to the Yeddyurappa government by the 11 rebel and five independent MLAs.
Bhardwaj had asked Yeddyurappa to face the floor test for the second time on October 22 after holding the first confidence motion carried by voice vote as unconstitutional.
Naidu questioned the timing of the "selective" IT raids conducted on BJP MLAs and some ministers while the state reeled amid a political crisis and alleged that Congress had "brazenly misused, institutions like CBI, Anti-terrorism squad, governor and IT department to further its political interests."
"BJP has no problem in IT raids conducted on businessmen including on Reddys (mine owners of Bellary and ministers). I am not here to take vakalat on behalf of Janardhana Reddy (tourism minister). But selective searches and the time chosen is objectionable," Naidu said.
"It is a political tax raid. Why similar searches were not conducted on rebel MLAs who travelled to Goa, Chennai, Kochi and Mumbai and also on leaders who paid their bills," Naidu asked.
Naidu asked the Centre to amend the Anti-Defection laws to strengthen it further keeping in view the recent experience on defections.
In the backdrop of the Karnataka high court verdict, he said the law should be explicit that anybody acting against the party outside the party forum, should be liable for action on grounds of defection, he said.
The defectors should not be allowed to contest for six years and anybody resigning from any party also should not be given any position for five years to contain defection, he suggested.

Dear All,

Media News - 
Rajasthan Governor Prabha Rau dies after heart attack.

If I remember correctly, this is second such case of an aged Governor dying in Office.

One Governor, in recent past, died just five days before taking over as Governor.

One hale & hearty person, even after leaving as Governor of AP, is ND Tiwari.
In the enclosed picture, he is seen playing Holi. Obviously, not with men.

Notwithstanding my comments above, should civil society work for selection criteria for Governors?

Or, any Tom, Dick & Harry imposed upon us by Smt Sonia Gandhi (atleast presently) is acceptable to us?

Regards,

Rajasthan Governor Prabha Rau dies after heart attack
26 Apr, 2010 1358hrs IST PTI

NEW DELHI: Rajasthan Governor Prabha Rau on Monday died at the AIIMS hospital here after she was admitted to the hospital following a heart attack. 

75-year-old Rau was found in an unconscious condition this morning in the bathroom of Jodhpur House here and was immediately taken to the hospital, a state government spokesman said. 

She died later, he said. Congress president Sonia Gandhi was among the first to visit the hospital. 

Rajasthan chief minister Ashok Gehlot has rushed to Delhi from Jaipur after hearing the news. 

A former president of the Maharashtra Pradesh Congress Committee, Rau had earlier served as Himachal Pradesh Governor. She was shifted to Rajasthan in Janaury this year.
