"Had I Listened To Centre...": Jammu & Kashmir Governor's Startling Claim | Read
Jammu and Kashmir Governor Satya Pal Malik, who abruptly dissolved the assembly last week after two rival groups - one backed by the BJP - staked claim to power, has raised eyebrows with his comments defending his decision. "Had I looked towards Delhi (the centre), then I would have been forced to invite Sajad Lone to form the government," the Governor said at a convocation in Madhya Pradesh's Gwalior on Saturday. "Then I would have gone down in history as unscrupulous. But I ended the whole thing. Those who want to abuse me can do so, but I am convinced I did the right thing," Mr Malik stressed.
