Sougata Roy

New Delhi: Trinamool Congress MP Sougata Roy on Monday accused the Centre of interfering in the administration of states through its nominated Governors. Speaking during the Zero Hour in the Lok Sabha, Roy claimed that in non-BJP ruled States like West Bengal, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Punjab, Rajasthan, Maharashtra and Jharkhand, the elected governments were facing such issues. "The nominated Governors are interfering in the day-to-day administration of the States.
They are calling for the police officers and the Chief Secretary. "In Tamil Nadu, the Governor has returned a Bill passed by the Assembly. In West Bengal, the Governor is refusing to sign a Bill which was unanimously passed in the Assembly," he said. Roy was also stopped twice during his statement by Speaker Om Birla who warned him to speak within the rules.
