Andrew Cuomo resigned in August over allegations of sexual and workplace harassment and is currently facing investigations over nursing home deaths during the coronavirus pandemic.

An investigation has found that New York Governor Andrew Cuomo sexually harassed nearly a dozen women in and out of state government. It further stated that Cuomo also worked to retaliate against one of his accusers. The report has intensified calls for the Democrat's resignation or impeachment.
President Joe Biden was among those who said Cuomo should resign.
The governor, however, remained defiant, saying that &ldquo;the facts are much different than what has been portrayed" and that he &ldquo;never touched anyone inappropriately or made inappropriate sexual advances.&rdquo;
The nearly five-month investigation concluded that 11 women who said that Cuomo had touched them inappropriately, commented on their appearance or made suggestive comments about their sex lives were telling the truth.
Those accusers included an aide who said Cuomo groped her at the governor's mansion and a state trooper on his security detail, who said he ran his hand or fingers across her stomach and her back.

Recall Guv Koshyari to preserve Raj Bhavan’s ‘prestige’: Sena to PM

Taking aim at Maharashtra Governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari over his letter to Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray, the&nbsp;Shiv Sena&nbsp;said Koshyari should be recalled if Prime Minister&nbsp;Narendra Modi&nbsp;and Union Home Minister Amit Shah wish to preserve the 'prestige' of Raj Bhavan. In a stinging editorial in Saamana, Sena claimed that using the Governor&rsquo;s office to attack the state government has proved costly for the&nbsp;BJP&nbsp;in Maharashtra. In an official letter demanding the immediate reopening of places of worship, Koshyari had asked Uddhav&nbsp;if he has turned 'secular'.&nbsp;Thackeray responded saying he did not need his Hindutva credentials certified by Koshyari. The Saamana&nbsp;editorial said opening places of worship will lead to spike in Covid-19 infections in the state which has recorded most number of cases and deaths in India.
 The Saamana editorial justified the chief minister&rsquo;s response to Koshyari&rsquo;s letter. &ldquo;Even the gods must be ringing the temple bells in happiness,&rdquo; it said. &ldquo;If the sound of ringing bells has reached Modi and Shah, then they will recall the Governor to preserve the prestige of Raj Bhavan.&rdquo;

Shocked by tone of Maha Governor's letter to CM: Pawar to Modi

PTI,&nbsp;Mumbai:&nbsp;NCP chief Sharad Pawar on Tuesday wrote to Prime Minister Narendra Modi expressing shock over the kind of language used by Maharashtra Governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari in a letter to Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray over reopening places of worship amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
In his letter to Modi, the Rajya Sabha MP, whose party is a key ally in the Shiv Sena-led MVA government, said he was pained by the erosion of standards of conduct by the high Constitutional office of the Honourable Governor.
In the letter to the chief minister on reopening of temples, Koshyari had asked, "Have you suddenly turned secular, the term you hated?" Pawar said the Prime Minister had given very appropriate slogan of do gaj ki doori to curb the spread of COVID-19 and added the Maharashtra government is also planning a campaign to make people aware of the importance of social distancing.
The former Union minister referred to the huge crowds some temples in the state like that of Lord Vitthal in Pandhapur, Siddhivinayak in Mumbai, Sai Baba in Shirdi and others, witness on normal days.
In such places, it is almost impossible to maintain safe distance between people. Keeping this in view, the Government of Maharashtra had decided to stagger the decision regarding opening up of places of worship, Pawar said.
The NCP patriarch said he agreed the Governor can have independent views and opinion on the sensitive issue and appreciated the latters prerogative to convey his views to the chief minister.
However, I am shocked and surprised to see the letter of the Governor released to the media and the kind of language used in the letter, Pawar said.
The veteran politician said separately on Twitter that the kind of language used in the letter does not behove well for a person who holds a constitutional position.
The NCP president said he is sure the prime minister, too, would have noticed the intemperate language used in the Governors letter.
Pawar said the word secular is part of the Preamble of the Constitution and it shields all religions.
Hence, the Chair of the Chief Minister must uphold such tenets of the Constitution, he said.
Unfortunately, Hon. Governors letter to the Chief Minister invokes the connotation as if written to the leader of a political party.
I firmly believe that in a democracy, free exchange of views between the Hon. Governor and the Hon. Chief Minister must take place.
However, the tone and tenor used must always be in keeping with the stature of the constitutional post occupied by the individuals, Pawar said.
The veteran leader said that looking at the turn of events, the chief minister was left with no option but to release his reply to the Governor in the press.
Pawar said he fully endorsed the chief ministers decision on this issue.
I have not discussed this matter either with the Hon.
Governor nor with the Hon. Chief Minister. However, I felt that I must share my pain with you and the public at the erosion of standards of conduct by the high Constitutional office of the Hon. Governor, Pawar told Modi.
Pawar said he enclosed with his epistle to Modi a copy of Koshyaris letter.
The NCP president also mentioned in his own communication to Modi two quotes from Koshyaris letter to Thackeray.
You have a strong votary of Hindutva. You had publicly espoused your devotion for Lord Rama by visiting Ayodhya after taking charge as the Chief Minister.
"You had visited Vitthal Rukmini Mandir in Pandharpur and performed the puja on Ashadhi Ekadashi.
Wonder if you are receiving any divine premonition to keep postponing the reopening (of) the places of worship time and again or have you suddenly turned secular yourselves, the term you hated? said Koshyari to Thackeray, according to Pawars letter.&nbsp;

Govt's strategy is 'self-defeating': Raghuram Rajan

Former RBI&nbsp;Governor Raghuram Rajan&nbsp;on Monday said that the 23.9% drop in the&nbsp;GDP&nbsp;should alarm us all. He pointed out that the contraction in India is even&nbsp;worse than a drop of 12.4% in Italy and 9.5% in the US, two of the most Covid-affected countries.
Rajan said the government&rsquo;s strategy to conserve resources today for a possible future stimulus is 'self-defeating'. The government&nbsp;needs to be frightened out of their complacency and take meaningful action.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The eminent&nbsp;economist&nbsp;stressed that the recent pick-up in sectors like auto is not an evidence of the much-awaited&nbsp;V-shaped recovery. "It reflects pent-up demand, which will fade as we go down to the true level of demand in the damaged, partially-functioning, economy," he noted.
He also suggested that reforms can be a form of stimulus, and even if not carried out immediately, a timeline to undertake them can boost current investor sentiment. "The world will recover earlier than India, so exports can be a way for India to grow,"&nbsp;he said.

Former RBI&nbsp;Governor Raghuram Rajan&nbsp;on Monday said that the 23.9% drop in the&nbsp;GDP&nbsp;should alarm us all. He pointed out that the contraction in India is even&nbsp;worse than a drop of 12.4% in Italy and 9.5% in the US, two of the most Covid-affected countries.
Rajan said the government&rsquo;s strategy to conserve resources today for a possible future stimulus is 'self-defeating'. The government&nbsp;needs to be frightened out of their complacency and take meaningful action.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
