Mizoram Governor Kummanam Rajasekharan resigned from the post on Friday. His resignation was accepted by the President, according to an official press release.
Kummanam is likely to contest the forthcoming Lok Sabha election as a BJP candidate from Thiruvananthapuram seat. Sitting MP Shashi Tharoor will be the Congress candidate while Left Front has announced Divakaran as its candidate.
Rajasekharan was the president of State BJP before he became the Governor. The BJP has high hopes of winning the seat in the wake of the Sabarimala controversy.
