Details on the fresh row between Gujarat CM Narendra Modi and governor Kamla Beniwal.

The governor today sought from the state government details of expenditure
incurred on Narendra Modi's 'Sadbhavna' fast, intensifying the faceoff with the Chief Minister who has demanded her recall.

Beniwal, who has been locked in a row with the state government over the appointment of Lokayukta, dashed off a letter based on a representation received from Mahagujarat Janta Party chief Gordhan Zadafia. Details of the expenses and procedures followed for its sanction were sought from the state government by the Governor.

Zadafia, a former state minister in the Modi government who parted ways with the BJP and floated his own party MJP, alleged there was misappropriation of public funds by the government to meet the expenditure for the three-day fast.
