Topic: Governors of Nagaland


  
  Nagaland News - 10
In Nagaland of India, Mon District and Tunsang District are the two places where not less than three thousand Nagas from Burma are taking shelter.
The S C Jamir government in Nagaland has been insisting that all underground groups in Nagaland should be brought under the purview of the current peace process to broaden its scope because no one group/organisation has the mandate to resolve the complex Naga political problem.
Earlier, he told a press conference that 'the extension of the ceasefire to other areas in the North-east is being actively considered by the Home Ministry.' Advani however admitted that even after the existence of the ceasefire for the last three years, progress of political talks with the NSCN (I-M) was 'slow'.

 Generals as Governors
The management of this difficult equation, in fact, confers on the governor’s office a role that far exceeds the more ceremonial functions it is constitutionally restricted to elsewhere and in normal circumstances.
All the seven governors of the northeastern states today have either occupied high and sensitive positions in India’s security establishment or have had close ties to it.
Governors often act in ways that not only stretch constitutional propriety but also sacrifice democratic procedures at that altar of security expediencies.

 [Reader-list] Generals as Governors(Sanjib Baruah) Courtesy: www.tripurainfo.com
Governor as judge Instances of gubernatorial interventions point to the role they play in insulating counter-insurgency operations from democratic processes and scrutiny.
For a governor a former military general to make a legal judgment on whether a chief minister should be prosecuted pushes the limits of constitutional propriety.
To be sure, this power of Indian governors is not limited to the Northeast and as the Delhi-based magazine India Today pointed out in an editorial, there is something profoundly undemocratic about a mechanism which requires the governors permission to even begin legal proceeding against a chief minister seen as corrupt.

 The Hindu : Speed governors upsetting KSRTC schedule
The longer time taken by long-distance buses fitted with speed governors to reach their destinations is turning out to be a matter of concern for the KSRTC.
The speed governors, fitted in buses on the directive of the Motor Vehicles Department, prevent the driver from going beyond 60 km per hour even if the road is clear.
The Secretary of the State Transport Authority, Alex Paul, said the State Government did not have powers to intervene as the maximum speed limit for various class of vehicles were fixed by the Central Government as per the S.O 425(E) of June 9, 1989.

 Debating India - The unmaking of Governors   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
Considering the controversies surrounding the actions of Governors in Jharkhand, Goa and Bihar in the recent period, it is understandable that the focus in the two-day Governors’ conference was on ways to restore their standing and reputation for fairness.
A Governor’s fairness, judgment and understanding of his constitutional role are put to test in times of crisis or when a government is to be formed when there is no clear cut majority in the legislature or when a government’s majority support is called into question.
While the primary responsibility for restoring the dignity and standing of the office rests on the Governors themselves and on their conduct, the Central Government and the ruling party at the Centre cannot be oblivious of their own role in the making or unmaking of the office of Governor.

The fact that all the appointees have had fairly intimate connections with the security establishment cannot be mere coincidence.
Indeed, as Sanjoy Ghose found in the case of PWD engineers in Nagaland, unlike government tax collectors who could target only what is officially declared as income, insurgents—drawing on popular perceptions and credible rumor—can impose higher taxes based on more realistic assessments of income.

 Synopsis of Debates of 29th November, 2002
The Governors have a special responsibility under the Constitution.  Especially in the States of Arunachal and Nagaland, they have a special responsibility in terms of finance and law and order.  The Chief Executive Members of the District Councils should be included in the N.E.  Council.
So far as the provision of nomination of three Members  to the Council by the President, is concerned, I am of the view that only experts should be nominated to the Council.  Mostly, the tribal people living in these States, are having rich heritage in culture, cottage industries, handicrafts and handlooms.
As per the views expressed in a recent meeting of the Chief Ministers of the North-Easter States, the continuation of the Governors in the North-Eastern Council is not exactly correct.

As the peace-process becomes a mockery, perhaps time to ask: Is Nagaland heading back to the days of continuous fratricidal wars between the 'national workers' out to restore all that was wonderful in the state before 'India' decided to 'plunder and.
Over the years, much criticism has been levelled against the manner in which quite a few governors have acted in discharge of their role and favouring the ruling party or parties at the Centre.
