The Governor of Arunachal Pradesh JP Rajkhowa has terminated the services of the Advocate General Ranji Thomas and Additional Advocate General R.H. Nabam.
A notification to this effect was issued by the Governor on Tuesday claiming the removal of two top law officials. The move came after Supreme Court pulled up Rajkhowa and asked him to return all documents related to the state which was seized so far.
Earlier, YS Dadwal, advisor to the Governor, also resigned citing personal grounds. Former DG of Sashastra Seema Bal (SSB) B D Sharma has been appointed as Dadwal's replacement.
In exercising of power conferred to him under Article 165(3) of the Constitution of India, the Governor withdrew his pleasure with respect to appointment of Thomas and Nabam.
