NDTV
Supriya Sule was commenting on the Tamil Nadu Governor dismissing a jailed minister though he later decided to keep the dismissal order in abeyance.
Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) working president Supriya Sule on Friday described Tamil Nadu Governor RN Ravi's move of dismissing a cabinet minister as "dictatorship".
Talking to reporters in Mumbai, Ms Sule said the governor acted as if he was the BJP's Governor and not that of Tamil Nadu.
The Governor dismissed Minister V Senthil Balaji from the Council of Ministers on Thursday, days after the latter was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate in a cash-for-jobs scam. However, he later decided to keep the dismissal order in abeyance for the time being and informed Chief Minister MK Stalin about it.
"This is dictatorship. Where is the Constitution and democracy?" Ms Sule asked.
