New Governors in five states; TN BJP-chief named Telangana Governor

In a major reshuffle, the Center on Sunday announced the appointment of new Governors for five states, including Telangana, Kerala, Maharashtra, Rajasthan, and Himachal Pradesh. BJP's Tamil Nadu unit president, Dr. Tamilisai Soundararajan, has been appointed the Governor of Telangana. Bandaru, Dattatreya, Arif Mohammad Khan, Kalraj Mishra, and Bhagat Singh Koshyari are also on the list, according to a Rashtrapati Bhavan communique. Here's more.

Information
President Kovind appointed Governors based on Modi government's recommendations

President Ram Nath Kovind has appointed the new Governors based on the recommendations of the Narendra Modi government at the Center. Notably, of the five states where new Governors have been appointed, Maharashtra is the only state going for Assembly Elections later in 2019.

Tamilisai will succeed ESL Narasimhan as Telangana Governor

A statement issued by President Kovind's office said that Tamilisai will succeed ESL Narasimhan as the Governor of Telangana. Narasimhan, who held the dual charge as the Governor of both Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, recently demitted office. This will be for the first time that Telangana - the country's newest state - will have a separate Governor.

Tweet
An opportunity to serve the nation: Tamilisai

"My most sincere thanks to Hon'ble @PMOIndia Shri @narendramodi ji for giving me an opportunity to serve as Governor of Telangana...," Soundararajan said in a tweet. "...My sincere thanks to @AmitShah and for all those who have been supportive to me in my political career. I feel this as an opportunity to serve the Nation," she wrote on Twitter.
