Congress circles here are abuzz with rumours that ex-CM and now Maharashtra governor S.M. Krishna is likely to be shunted out to Mizoram or Chhattisgarh as governor. It seems he even discussed the topic with Sonia when he called on her recently. There’s also talk of him wanting to be "honourably retired" with a foreign posting. Krishna himself, while on a recent visit here, had made unsolicited statements like "I won’t return to politics." And now a wag tells us he wants wife Prema Krishna to be given a Congress ticket to contest from Chamarajpet, the seat he resigned before taking up the gubernatorial assignment.
