Hyderabad, Dec 26th: Andhra Pradesh Governor Narayan Dutt Tiwari is reported to have resigned from his post on Saturday owing to health reasons. Tiwari is reported to have sent his resignation letter to President Pratinbha Patil. On Friday, Tiwari became centre of controversy after a regional channel broadcast some footage showing him in compromising positions with women.
The Union Home Ministry asked State Chief Secretary, Ramakant Reddy, to send a detailed report about the allegations made against Tiwari. Addressing the media in New Delhi, the Congress spokesman, Shakeel Ahmed, said the High Court is looking into the matter. "Since the matter is sub-judice, no one should comment upon it," Shakeel said. Tiwari was previously served as the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand. This is not the first time that Tiwari, has figured in controversies involving women. Sometime back, a lawyer had filed a paternity suit in Delhi High Court against Tiwari claiming that he was born out of intimate relationship between the Governor and his (lawyer) mother. The charge was, however, denied by Tiwari.
