"Honorable Governor Sir, your letter was received through the media..all the subjects written in the letter are all state subjects...I and my government are accountable to 3 crore Punjabis according to the constitution and not to any governor appointed by the central government.My reply to this understand," tweeted Bhagwant Mann.
