Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut on Monday said it is mandatory for a governor to accept recommendations of the state cabinet, a day after a delegation of the Maharashtra government met Governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari to seek his approval for holding the Assembly Speaker’s election during the ongoing winter session of the legislature.
Talking to reporters here, Raut said, “Governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari studies a lot. So much study is not good in a democracy. What matters is listening to the voice of the people.”
“It is mandatory for the governor to accept recommendations of the cabinet,” said the Rajya Sabha member, whose party shares power with the NCP and Congress in Maharashtra.
