Telangana Governor Resigns, May Contest Lok Sabha Polls As BJP Candidate
Telangana and Puducherry Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan resigned from both posts Monday morning. Sources told NDTV Ms Soundararajan - the leader of the Bharatiya Janata Party's Tamil Nadu unit before her governorship - is expected to contest the 2024 Lok Sabha election. Ms Soundararajan, 62, was sworn in as the then-fledgling Telangana state's second Governor in November 2019, and was given additional charge as Lieutenant-Governor of Puducherry in February 2021. She is likely to contest Puducherry's lone Lok Sabha seat, which is held by the Congress.
