Will work in tandem with elected representatives: Lt. Governor
The Hindu
Sapling planting drive commemorating 75 years of Independence held in Manapet
Lt. Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan on Tuesday said she would extend all support to the government to make the Union Territory a great destination. “I do not believe in power. The Lt. Governor will work in tandem with the elected representatives. That is why I asked to remove the special chair put on the podium for the Lt. Governor. Instead, I prefer to sit in the same kind of chair reserved for the Chief Minister and the Ministers,” she said. She was speaking while participating in a drive to mark the planting of 75,000 saplings on the occasion of ‘Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav’ to commemorate 75 years of Independence at Manapet village. “We all should work together without any differences to make Puducherry developed,” she said.
