Gujarat Governor Dr. Kamla Beniwal was on Sunday transferred to Mizoram
for the remainder of her term while Mizoram Governor Vakkom
Purushothaman was shifted as Governor of Nagaland.
According to a Rashtrapati Bhavan communiqué, Governor of Rajasthan Mrs.
Margaret Alva will discharge the functions of Governor of Gujarat in
addition to her own duties until regular arrangements for the office of
the Governor of Gujarat are made.
Mr. Purushothaman will also continue to hold the additional charge of
the office of the Governor of Tripura. The appointments will take effect
from the dates the incumbents assume charge of their respective
offices, the communiqué said.
Transfers of Gujarat and Mizoram governors came even as the Modi
government is likely to clear the names of senior BJP leaders for
appointment of new governors in nearly half a dozen States where
vacancies in Raj Bhavans have arisen.
