Ladakh's LG Kavinder Gupta Resigns After Just Nine Months In Office In a sudden move, Ladakh's Lieutenant Governor (LG) Kavinder Gupta has resigned from his position after serving just nine months in office. Gupta's resignation comes amid reports of tension between him and the Union Territory's Chief Minister Rigzin Spiti. According to sources, Gupta submitted his resignation to the Centre on Tuesday evening, citing personal reasons. However, insiders suggest that the LG had been under pressure due to differences with the Chief Minister over administrative issues. Gupta was appointed as the LG of Ladakh in June last year, following the region's reorganization into a Union Territory. Since then, he has faced criticism for his handling of various issues, including the COVID-19 pandemic and the ongoing conflict between Indian and Chinese forces along the Line of Actual Control (LAC). The resignation is seen as a significant development in Ladakh's political landscape, particularly given the region's fragile border situation. The move may also have implications for the Centre's plans to develop infrastructure projects in the region. Gupta's resignation has been accepted by the Union government, and an official announcement is expected soon. A new LG will be appointed in due course, sources said. The development has left many wondering about the future of Ladakh's administration and its ability to tackle the ongoing challenges facing the region.#Ladakh #Union_Territory #COVID19_pandemic #Kavinder_Gupta #Rigzin_Spiti #Line_of_Actual_Control #Indian_and_Chinese_forces
