83-year-old BJP leader from Nagpur is said to have met home minister Amit Shah before tendering resignation to President. His 2-year-plus tenure was marked by frequent clashes with the CM.
Punjab Governor Banwarilal Purohit had refused to take a call on four pending bills, while doubting the validity of the June session of the state assembly in which they were passed.
Governor Banwarilal Purohit in a letter asked Mann-led AAP govt to take action against real estate firm owned by party's Mohali MLA citing alleged violation of environmental norms.
Response came after Raj Bhavan sought details of state incurring additional debt of Rs 50,000 cr since AAP came to power. Opposition leaders allege CM is taking people for ride.
Mann says governor Purohit should enter electoral fray in Rajasthan after latter warned CM that he could write to President about failure of constitutional machinery in Punjab.
Officials instructed to stick to train travel & stay at UT guest house or state bhavans from now on. In 1st week of August, governor had stopped use of tomatoes in Raj Bhavan's kitchen.
Banwarilal Purohit slams CM for not taking action on complaint of alleged sexual misconduct against minister Lal Chand Kataruchak. Will not use state copter to travel, he adds.
Hearing petition filed by Punjab govt Tuesday, SC held that governor had no discretionary power to delay summoning assembly session & was duty-bound to act on cabinet's advice.
SC says chief minister, governor should maintain 'dignity' and 'mature statesmanship' in their communication despite them representing different ideologies.

India-Russia JV is also racing to deliver 7,000 more AK-203 assault rifles by 15 Aug. These are currently being made with 50% indigenisation and this will surge to 100% by 31 December.
Public, loud, upfront, filled with impropriety and high praise sometimes laced with insults. This is what we call Trumplomacy. But the larger objective is the same: American supremacy.
