Governor's and LT Governor not discharging Constitutional duties

Though the BJP is going to form the first Govt. after the formation of Maharashtra, which was carved out as a separate entity on May 1, 1960, but it was shocking to observe that the Governor of Maharashtra still not invited the BJP for the formation of the new Govt.

 It is worth mentioning that the BJP is still lacking the majority and the Shiv Sena or the NCP still have not submitted any letter of support to the Governor, officially, nor any such type of news, regarding the submission of support letter, by the Shiv Sena or the NCP have been reported by the Electronic and print media, so far.

Even, if it is being presumed that the Shiv Sena is bound to support the BJP, but still the Governor need to perform the constitutional exercises, before the oath ceremony.

However, it is, still, not clear whether the Shiv Sena is going to be accommodated in the Ministry, when and where the President of the BJP, Mr. Amit Shah has put a condition before the Chief of the Sena, Mr. Udhav Thakre to ask an apology from Mr. Narendra Modi, for his distasteful utterances, made against of Mr. Modi, by Mr. Thakre.

As far, the Delhi is concerned, the LG of the Delhi, Mr. Nazeeb Jung, for the sake of his chair, started dancing at the tune of the BJP, from the day one of the oath ceremony of Mr. Modi and to please the BJP, he forgot his constitutional responsibilities by seeking consent from the President of India to invite the BJP to form the government, even knowing of the fact that the BJP, once have declined to accept the invitation of LG for the formation of the Government, in wake of  their lesser numbers in the Assembly.

It was as usual, the apex court had to intervene in the petition filed by the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) seeking dissolution of the Delhi assembly. The Hon’ble court slammed the Centre and the LG over the five month delay in taking a decision on Government formation.

If the LG and the Governors are to dance at the tune of the ruling party, then it would be nice to call them PRO (Prime Minster Relation Officer), instead of Governor.
