Copy to Hon’ble Prime Minister, Hon’ble Home Minister of India, Hon’ble National Advisory Council Chairperson Thirumathi Sonia Gandhi and members of fourth estate

Subject: Time to define moral and ethical code of behavior for Lt.Governor’s and Governors and in particular stop the tainted Lt.Governor of Puducherry Iqbal Singh from administering oath of office to the newly elected cabinet of Puducherry Union Territory regarding..

Election results will be out next week by 13 th and a new assembly had to be constituted and new council of ministers to be sworn in. We the people of Puducherry want The President of India not to be silent spectator of degradation of the institution of Lt.Governor’s office by Mr.Iqbal Singh who had brought national shame to the Raj Niwas by being allowed by The Prime Minister of India, who forgot the morality in politics for a moment when he sanctioned Enforcement Directorate to interrogate Iqbal Singh in his official residence i.e. Raj Niwas.

We demand immediate removal of tainted Iqbal Singh from office. We want The President to nominate some other Governor or Lt.Governor temporarily to administer oath of office for the new council of ministers, if Home Ministry delays sacking current incumbent in time or fails to choose a clean new taint-free Lt.Governor. Alas Lal Bahadur Sastri’s resigning for railway accident owning moral responsibility will have to be branded as brainless act while evil brains like Iqbal Singh will be hailed and shielded by our Mr. Clean PM.

Union Territories Act 1963 defines "Administrator" means the administrator of 3*[the Union territory] appointed by the President and you as custodian of Constitution of India should withdraw your appointee who not only got caught by Enforcement Directorate in Hasan Ali fake pass port case but in misusing his position and bypassing the cabinet, circumventing all rules, fabricated address-less applications and deeds to start a medical college wherein his family and sons and officials brought by him operating from Raj Niwas are participants, and acquired land arm-twisting land and house owners with connivance of bureaucracy and snatched private properties of even absconders by agreements without registration and for gurdudwara junior officials forced to deliver land even while High Court stay is live till now, and sanction of power projects in Yanam propped by private players patronized by Revenue Minister Malladi Krishna Rao to use gas from KG 6 block at the cost of a GAIL-NTPC-Puducherry Government power project announced in the floor of the Assembly and by Former Lt.Governor Govind Singh Gurjar, along with bringing a corrupt conclave from his home state to create a formidable business enterprise which includes hotel project in Government land and list is endless and only a CBI can unearth skeletons in such scams of Himalayan heights and gigantic proportions.

We on behalf of the people of Puducherry who had seen noble persons like B.D.Jatti, Cheddilal and most honest and clean Lt.Governors in our Raj Niwas are baffled to see that The Prime Minister sets bad precedent to allow ED to interrogate a constitutional authority in Raj Niwas which would tomorrow lead to even Ministers being interrogated in North and South Block. National televisions have exposed this and you as the authority who appointed Iqbal Singh cannot remain blind to such degradation of the office of Lt.Governor.

Artcle 239; (b) "article defines Relation of Administrator and his Ministers to President.50. Relation of Administrator and his Ministers to President. Notwithstanding anything in this Act, the Administrator and his Council of Ministers shall be under the general control of, and comply with such particular directions, if any, as may from time to time be given by, the President.

As empowered by this provision you should immediately direct the Lt.Governor to step down and prevent such tainted Lt.Governor from administering oath of office to the new council of Ministers since people of Puducherry have voted a new government to provide clean governance and its beginning in the hands of one who brazenly misused office does not augur will for good governance. We also urge you to advice the Prime Minister and Home Ministry to institute CBI probe into the various ventures Iqbal Singh launched here and extensions given even to retired bureaucrats for graft and other shameful scams which my tongue feels shamed to spell and my hands tremble to type.

With Regards

Yours sincerely
