governor have to work for the people and there is little room for sensitivity in this complementary relationship, says Uttar Pradesh Governor Anandiben Patel, stressing that both have to work for the welfare of the people. Patel, who took office on July 29, 2019, is the first woman governor of Uttar Pradesh since Sarojini Naidu in 1949 and also its longest serving.
«I don't see the relationship between the government and Raj Bhavan as sensitive. Both the government and the governor have to work for the people. There is hardly any room for sensitivity,» Patel told PTI in an exclusive interview.
«Conflicts arise in states like West Bengal and Kerala where attempts were made to revoke the powers of the governors by making changes in the law and which subsequently led to court cases,» she said.
The responsibilities of the governor and the chancellor are intertwined and she enjoys them both, the governor said.
«Things are different here (in UP) than say in West Bengal or Kerala where chancellor-governors are hardly able to work in universities there. Here it is different as I also hailed from the same party (before becoming governor) as the one in government. That is why I don't run into issues here,» she said.
