Puducherry Lt Governor Kiran Bedi has ruled out any proposal of appointing her as Governor of Andhra Pradesh, while further making it clear that she doesn’t have any intention to contest in Lok Sabha elections. Of late, speculation is rife over the Centre’s inclination towards Kiran Bedi as Governor of AP.
“I would like to remain in administration. I don’t have any interest in politics. There’s no truth in news about contesting in forthcoming Lok Sabha elections,” said former IPS officer Bedi.
It may be recalled that AP chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu often complained about non-cooperation of the Governor and asked the Centre to replace him with someone else.
Since 2009, former IPS officer ESL Narasimhan has been serving as Governor of united AP and continuing for Telangana and AP after the state bifurcation in 2014. Several TDP ministers also openly criticised the functioning style of Narasimhan.
