Taranjit Singh Sandhu Appointed Delhi Lieutenant Governor in Gubernatorial Reshuffle

Taranjit Singh Sandhu, former Indian Ambassador to the United States, has been appointed as the new Lieutenant Governor of Delhi, replacing Vinai Kumar Saxena, who has been reassigned as the Lieutenant Governor of Ladakh following Kavinder Gupta's resignation. Sandhu, a 1988-batch Indian Foreign Service officer with over 35 years of diplomatic experience, contested the 2024 Lok Sabha elections from Amritsar on a BJP ticket. This change is part of a broader gubernatorial reshuffle involving multiple states and union territories ahead of upcoming elections.
