Kalraj Mishra  

President Ram Nath Kovind has appointed new governors for Rajasthan, Maharashtra and Telangana
 

The oath-taking ceremony of Kalraj Mishra was graced with the presence of Himachal Pradesh chief minister Jai Ram Thakur and the new Governor's wife Satyawati Mishra

Mishra, 78, had resigned from the Narendra Modi-led government as minister for micro, small and medium enterprises in 2017. The Uttar Pradesh leader did not contest the last Lok Sabha election

Congress spokesman Randeep Surjewala on Monday shared two pieces of news that weren't. One was a newspaper clipping that claimed there was some scam in the organisation of the Kumbh Mela. The other said Kalraj Mishra threatened to shoot some protesting BJP cadre dead. Both were pieces of satire published on the occasion of Holi. Passing them off as facts made the Congress tweets classic cases of fake news.
