ASHWANI KUMAR NAGALAND GOVERNOR STEPS DOWN ,PUT IN HIS PAPERS

Nagaland Governor Ashwani Kumar resigned on Wednesday.

“I resigned this morning and came to Shimla. I am relaxed now,” Kumar said.  The resignation of 63-year-old Kumar came days after Union Home Secretary Anil Goswami had telephoned some of the Governors, appointed by the previous UPA regime, to step down after the Narendra Modi government assumed charge.

Uttar Pradesh Governor B L Joshi and Chhattisgarh Governor Shekhar Dutt have put in their papers last week. Kumar, a former IPS officer who had served as Director of Central Bureau of Investigation, was appointed as Nagaland Governor in March 2013.
