Manipur Governor VK Duggal on Thursday tendered his resignation, becoming the ninth Governor appointed by the UPA to quit since the NDA Government came to power.
“I have resigned of my own volition,” said Duggal as he resigned from the post. On Tuesday, former Delhi CM Sheila Dikshit too had resigned as Kerala Governor. K Sankara-narayanan (Maharashtra), MK Narayanan (West Bengal), Ashwani Kumar (Nagaland), Bl Joshi (Uttar Pradesh), BV Wanchoo (Goa), Shekhar Dutt (Chhattisgarh), and V Purush-othaman (Mizoram) are others Governor to resign in the last three months.
