Tamil Nadu ke naye Chief Minister Vijay ke oath-taking ceremony ke dauran ek unusual moment dekha gaya. Governor Rajendra Vishwanath Arlekar ne unhe rok kar official oath format par adhere karne ko kaha.

Yeh incident tab hua jab Vijay ne official oath text ko chhod kar ek extended statement dena shuru kar diya. WION ke mutabiq, Vijay ne kaha, "I, C Joseph Vijay, will stay true to the legally established Constitution of India… as Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu, I will work honestly and dedicatedly to fulfil my responsibilities."

Governor ne kyun roka Vijay ko?

Governor Arlekar ne Vijay ko rok kar unhe prescribed constitutional format par wapas laane ki koshish ki. NDTV ke hisaab se, Governor ne unse kaha ki woh official oath text ko hi padhein. Vijay ne apne speech mein "legally established Constitution of India" aur "honestly and dedicatedly" jaise words ka istemal kiya jo official oath mein nahi the.

Kya tha official oath format?

Official oath format mein sirf Constitution ke prati faithfulness aur duties ka zikr hota hai. Vijay ne isse hat kar ek political oath-speech jaisa kuch bol diya. Times Now ke mutabiq, Vijay ne Governor se oath-taking ceremony ke liye bhi request ki thi.

Hamaari Baat: Yeh incident kyun important hai?

Yeh incident dikhata hai ki naye CM ne apne oath ko personally define karne ki koshish ki. Lekin Governor ka intervention yeh clear karta hai ki constitutional procedures ko follow karna zaroori hai. Hamari nazar mein, Vijay ka off-script jaana unke fans ke liye exciting ho sakta hai, lekin official ceremony mein format ka palan karna behtar hota. Isse future mein bhi koi confusion nahi hota.
