Jharkhand gets a new governor as Ramesh Bais. 

Ramesh Bais is appointed as the new governor of Jharkhand over the cabinet reshuffle. Bais, who is currently the governor of Tripura will succeed Draupadi Murmu in Jharkhand. Murmu was distinguished not only because of being the first governor from the tribal community but also for being the first woman governor of Jharkhand since the birth of the state in 2000.

Draupadi Murmu represented the Odisha legislative assembly as an MLA from Rairangpur. A native of Chhattisgarh, Murmu was appointed the governor of Jharkhand in May 2015. However, she began to lose her popularity among the top brass of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government after it lost the assembly election in 2019. She was also reported to be the probable face of the 2017 presidential election.

President Ram Nath Kovind on Tuesday appointed new governors in eight states of the country, ahead of the much-anticipated reshuffle of the cabinet.
