Mumbai, 13th Feb. Shortly after announcing his resignation as governor of Maharashtra on Sunday, Bhagat Singh Koshyari stated that he will return to Uttarakhand to eat kafals.
Observing the similarities between the two states, Koshyari stated that Maharashtra and Uttarakhand share a similar culture.
“When I came here and studied Marathi, I came to know that there are hundred pahadi words in Marathi. I went to the rural areas of Maharashtra, I found people very calm like Uttarakhand. Our culture is the same, if ‘Deshpande’ is here then we have ‘Pandey’ and if Raut is here then we have Rawat,” Bhagat Singh Koshyari said on the last day of the Uttarakhand Premier League.
“I am going back to Uttarakhand to eat Kafals,” he added.
On Sunday, the Rashtrapati Bhavan announced the names of 12 Governors for states and one Lieutenant Governor for the Union Territory of Ladakh.
Koshyari, who has been governor of Maharashtra for over three years, has been replaced by Ramesh Bais. In September 2019, Koshyari was appointed Governor of Maharashtra.
Mr Koshyari had previously expressed his desire to be relieved of his duties to Prime Minister Narendra Modi last month.
