Sources said that the current LG VK Saxena of Delhi can be sent to Jammu and Kashmir or West Bengal. LG Manoj Sinha of Jammu and Kashmir, close to PM Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah, is allegedly being considered for a major role in the party organization.
Delhi is likely to get a new Lieutenant Governor (LG) soon. The Center is allegedly considering the reshuffle in the posts of governors. Sources said that three names for Delhi’s LG are being considered prominently in the names of Ajay Bhalla, Rajesh Khullar and CV Anand Bose. Sources said that the current LG VK Saxena of Delhi can be sent to Jammu and Kashmir or West Bengal. LG Manoj Sinha of Jammu and Kashmir, close to PM Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah, is allegedly being considered for a major role in the party organization.
On the condition of anonymity, a BJP leader said that Sinha is one of the best electoral strategists and is a strict taskmaster. He cannot be ignored for the post of party chief. Sources said that presently Manipur Governor Bhalla is at the forefront of replacing Saxena, after which former IAS officer Khullar is named Khullar. Bhalla is being given this post due to his experience in administrative roles in Delhi.
However, it is possible that Bhalla’s return to the national capital is possible only after the formation of the government in Manipur. There are reports that the government may appoint a former IAS or IPS officer of Manipur as Governor of Manipur, who has experience handling North Eastern cases. If Saxena is not sent to Jammu and Kashmir, he is suitable for the role of the Governor of Manipur.
