Kummanam, the former Kerala State BJP president, had been sworn in as Mizoram Governor on May 25, 2018. President Ram Nath Kovind has appointed Jagdish Mukhi, Governor of Assam, to discharge the functions of the Governor of Mizoram, in addition to his own duties, until regular arrangements for the office of the Governor of Mizoram is made.
