GUWAHATI: Union minister Kiren Rijiju on Wednesday said the Centre had acted only on the suggestion of governor Jyoti Prasad Rajkhowa in the Arunachal Pradesh crisis and the court verdict was not against it.

“It is not our case. It will be total misjudgment if somebody says that it is a judgement against the central government. The central government acted on the basis of the report of the governor,” he said on the sidelines of the North-East Democratic Alliance’s conclave.

“Whatever is the political issue, it is within the Congress party and it is in the state legislative assembly. We are not part of the whole problem,” he said.

Rijiju said the Centre would honour the apex court verdict. “It’s a Supreme Court judgement. When the matter is in the court, we have to respect it. There is no reason to defy or to criticise the ruling of the honourable Supreme Court... The judgement of the honourable court is always binding and final...,” he said.
