Former Kerala governor Sheila Dikshit Saturday said that the way she was asked to quit was not right.

"The way a bureaucrat called me asking me to quit was not right. Governor is a constitutional position," Dikshit told CNN-IBN.

"I suggest that parliament should come out with a law that when new government comes in, old governor should automatically resign," she added.

"Look how they treated Kamla Beniwal (former governor of Gujarat). Why should transfers to northeast be seen as punishment postings," Dikshit added.
