Puducherry: Outgoing Lt Governor of Puducherry Kiran Bedi on Wednesday said whatever work done was a sacred duty fulfilling her constitutional and moral responsibilities.

A day after she was removed as the Lt Governor of the Union Territory, the former IPS officer thanked the Centre for a life time experience in serving Puducherry.

She also thanked all those who worked with her closely.

Bedi said she could say with a deep sense of satisfaction that during her tenure ‘Team Raj Nivas diligently worked to serve larger public interest’.

Bedi, who has been at loggerheads with the elected government and particularly with Chief Minister V Narayanasamy also said “whatever was done was a sacred duty fulfilling my constitutional and moral responsibilities.”

She asserted that Puducherry has a very bright future.

“It is now in the hands of the people.”

She wished for a prosperous Puducherry.

In a surprise development late on Tuesday, the Rashtrapati Bhavan announced that Bedi will cease to hold the office of Lieutenant Governor of Puducherry, just a week after Narayanasamy petitioned President Ram Nath Kovind, urging him to recall her.

Hailing the replacement of Bedi, the CM had said, “it marks victory for the rights of the people”.

Telangana Governor Tamizhisai Soundararajan has been assigned additional charge of Puducherry following removal of Lt Governor.

  1. Sudden developments in Punducherry on the night of 16 February 2021 following resignation of 4 Congress MLA’s.
    According to news reports , in a sudden development on the night of 16 February 2021, President of India removed Kiran Bedi from the post of Lt Governor of Punducherry , asking Telengana Governor Tamilsai Soundarajan to take charge. This developments followed resignation of 4 Congress MLA’s in the Union Territory during the same day , bringing V. Narayanasamy government to minority.
    In the context of this major happenings on 16 February , 2021 , it may be apt to share with readers the precise related predictive alert of this Vedic astrology writer in article at english.nirpakhawaaz.in on 29 January , 2021 , over a fortnight prior , as follows:-
    “ Predictive alerts for more care and appropriate strategy in vulnerable countries of world during 9 February , particularly from mid-February to 10 March in 2021”.
    The related predictive alerts in the said article read like this :-
    “( B ). Now , India is taken up covering the period from about 9 February , particularly from mid-February to 10 March in present year 2021. States and places likely to come within range of particular impact appear to be one or more among Gujarat-Gandhinagar , Sikkim-Gangtok , Chhatisgarh-Raipur , Jharkhand-Ranchi , Delhi-HimachalPradesh , Rajasthan-Dungarpur-Sikar-Jhalawar , Telengana-Hyderabad-Karimnagar , Kashmir-Srinagar . Such dates as 12 to 14 February , 17 to 18 February , 22 to 23 February and 3 to 4 March in 2021 are closely relevant for likely trending of happening or formation of the events forecast in this article. The following predictive alerts are likely to necessitate more care and appropriate strategy :-
    ( 2 ). …………………There can be desertions or change of allegiance among political groups or parties. Where vulnerable , new formations among such political party or parties may lead to change in the government.
    ( 3 ). Major worrisome concerns for those in political , administrative and policing power are likely to mount”.
    It seems the fast changing political developments in Punducherry on 16 February 2017 , few hours before 17 February 2021 indicated in the prediction of this writer for the purpose , suggests that the prediction has not been off the mark.
