19th February 2016: Riding on the support of 33 out of 60 MLAs in the Arunachal Legislative Assembly, Kalikho Pul, the 46-year-old leader from the Kaman Mishmi community was sworn in by Governor J P Rajkhowa. Pul, who was a Health Minister in former CM Nabam Tuki’s cabinet revolted to oust the latter and did so by successfully passing a no-confidence motion against Tuki. Governor Rajkhowa, however, triggered debates about him acting as a saffron agent after he summoned the State Assembly without consulting the cabinet and the Speaker in December last year. While the BJP had moved an impeachment motion against the Speaker, he refused to let the Opposition and the dissident Congress faction enter the Assembly premises.

MUSINGS OF A SOLDIER: TIT-BITS

People often ask me about my life out of uniform. Honestly, I have had no problems. Not so far. Instead, I find it quite refreshing. No routine, no parades, no briefing, no impending operations. Having donned the uniform since the age of thirteen until I hung up my boots last year, could I ever visualize life out of uniform? Not really. But, as I said, the transition has been quite smooth–no hang-overs, no regrets. People have been very positive in their interactions. Government departments have been responsive whenever I have approached for assistance.The genuine respect for the uniform is quite evident and it makes my heart swell with pride. Arunachal, to that extent, is the most nationalistic state in the country, I daresay. It has been kind of a revelation for me to experience the freedom of being a common man in an environment of positivity!
