Puducherry, Feb 17 : Hours after she was removed as Lieutenant Governor of Puducherry, Kiran Bedi said whatever she did was a sacred duty, fulfilling her constitutional and moral responsibilities.
She thanked the Centre for a ‘lifetime experience’ in serving Puducherry.
“Thank all those who were a part (of) my journey as Lt Governor of Puducherry-The People of Puducherry and all the Public officials (sic),” Bedi tweeted on Wednesday.
The 71-year-old was removed as the Lieutenant Governor last night amid a crisis in the Congress government in the union territory. The government slipped into a minority after four legislators resigned from the Assembly during the last one month.
The former IPS officer posted a statement along with her tweet. “I thank the Government of India for a lifetime experience in serving Puducherry, as its Lt Governor,” she said.
“I also thank all who worked with me closely. I can say with deep sense of satisfaction that during this tenure ‘TeamRajNivas’ diligently worked to serve larger public interest,” Bedi said.
