Today’s “Word of the Day” is “gubernatorial“ and it is an adjective meaning “relating to a state governor (and or his/her office)”.
Example Sentence: The DMK’s gubernatorial test. The DMK, an ardent advocate (supporter) of federalism, has always questioned the role of Governors. DMK founder C.N. Annadurai likened (compared) the Governor’s role to a goat’s beard, saying both were unnecessary… The DMK government, however vocal it is on federalism, cannot afford to antagonise the Governor, that too so early… The emergence of the BJP as a ruling party at the Centre with a brute majority has turned the clock back for the DMK. Governors in Opposition-ruled States are unlikely to sign on dotted lines.
