Amid opposition charge of political vendetta in the sacking of Mizoram governor Kamla Beniwal, government on Thursday said the decision was prompted by "serious allegations" against her and insisted there was no politics behind it.

Beniwal, who had a running battle with Narendra Modi when he was Gujarat chief minister, was sacked on Wednesday night as governor of Mizoram just two months before her tenure comes to an end.

Law minister ravishankar Prasad said the move was in accordance with Constitutional principles.

"...the decision to remove Kamla Beniwal, the governor is in accordance with Constitutional principles and conventions with the due approval of the President of India," Prasad told reporters outside Parliament.
