Delhi Lieutenant Governor Anil Baijal today resigned from the post citing personal reasons and sent his papers to President Ram Nath Kovind.
Baijal’s tenure as the L-G of Delhi lasted more than five years, as he took over the office on December 31, 2016, after the sudden resignation of his predecessor Najeeb Jung.
Baijal also had stints as the chairman and managing director of Indian Airlines, chief executive officer of Prasar Bharati Corporation, development commissioner of Goa and counsellor in-charge of India’s aid programme in Nepal.
