Maharashtra governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari on Monday said that he had conveyed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi his desire to be discharged of all political responsibilities during the latter’s recent visit to Mumbai.
In a statement issued by Raj Bhavan, Koshyari expressed his desire to spend the rest of his life reading, writing and other leisurely activities.
“It was an absolute honour and privilege for me to serve as the Rajya Sevak or Rajyapal of a great state like Maharashtra – the land of saints, social reformers and valiant fighters,” said Koshyari.
“I can never forget the love and affection I have received from the people of Maharashtra during the last little more than 3 years. During the recent visit of the hon’ble Prime Minister to Mumbai, I conveyed to him my desire to be discharged of all political responsibilities and to spend the remainder of my life in reading, writing and other activities. I have always received the love and affection from the Prime Minister and I hope to receive the same in this regard,” Koshyari said.
