Thiruvananthapuram ∙ Opposition leader VDSathisan said that the governor’s action to approve Saji Cherian’s oath of office is the final proof of the governor-government deal, which is being fought over and then unraveling. Satheesan called on the government to prepare to issue a white paper on the government’s financial situation.

Two days ago the opposition said the governor would accept the request to appoint Saji as minister. The top BJP leaders in Kerala act as intermediaries. Reappointing a minister without waiting for the final judgment in the case pending before the Magistrate Court and the High Court is tantamount to violating the Constitution.

The economic situation has plummeted to dangerous levels. Things will be true of the warnings in the white paper released by the UDF in December 2020.

The opposition leader recalled that 20,630 complaints about the buffer zone had been received and only 18 had been investigated up to yesterday. The Prime Minister said he will submit a report to the Supreme Court on 11 January. The area of ​​two and a half lakh hectares includes thousands of buildings, temples, farms and government offices. Ordinary people at the edge of the forest are in a panic. Satheesan said the buffer zone issue had become the biggest sign of government incompetence.

Thiruvananthapuram ∙ Governor Arif Muhammad Khan is set to make a decision today on the Prime Minister’s recommendation to reinstate Saji Cherian to cabinet. It is likely that Prime Minister Pinarayi Vijayan will be asked for an explanation in this regard. The uncertainty about tomorrow’s oath continues. The Governor’s signal is that he will not give in easily to the Prime Minister’s request.

The Governor pointed out that the case is an insult to the dignity of the Constitution and that is unusual. He had to resign in a situation that not even the Prime Minister could accept. He will check if the situation has changed. It cannot be said that the healing process is natural.

A notice was received from the Prime Minister asking him to re-swear Saji Cherian as minister. Seeking legal advice in this regard is a natural course of action. It will be checked and a decision will be made. The opinion of the legal adviser will be taken into consideration. After returning to Thiruvananthapuram, he said the decision will be made later.

The Governor has a duty to take the Minister’s oath if requested by the Prime Minister. The prime minister has the power to retire the minister even if he has lost favor with the governor. In this scenario, the governor will mainly decide whether Saji Cherian will be acquitted of the court case for making unconstitutional speeches. The Prime Minister did not explain why when he resigned and when he was offered to be minister again.

The Governor may ask why the resigning is sworn in again. The governor will ask why he resigned, why he is being sworn in again, whether the case related to this is pending in court, etc. If the explanation is satisfactory, the oath will be administered. Or the governor can wait for the court’s decision. Raj Bhavan’s assessment is that there are no urgent situations to swear by Saji Cherian. The Prime Minister had recommended to the Governor that the oath be administered tomorrow afternoon.
