Sources claim that the Central government expressed displeasure with Governor Purohit over the Chandigarh mayoral election confusion.

Banwarilal Purohit, who assumed the role of Punjab Governor in August 2021, tendered his resignation on Saturday, citing “personal reasons.”
The three-time Member of Parliament, having represented both the Congress and BJP from Nagpur, Banwarilal Purohit conveyed his decision to step down in a letter addressed to President Droupadi Murmu.

Purohit explained in his resignation letter, “Due to my personal reasons and certain other commitments, I tender my resignation from the post of the Governor of Punjab and Administrator, Union Territory, Chandigarh. Please accept the same and oblige.”

Before his stint in Punjab, Purohit had previously served as the governor of Tamil Nadu and Assam.
