Vinai

Vinai Kumar Saxena (born 23 March 1958) is an Indian business executive who is currently serving as the 4th Lieutenant Governor of Ladakh since 2026. He previously served as the 22nd Lieutenant Governor of Delhi from 2022 to 2026. He previously served as chairman of the Khadi and Village Industries Commission from 2015 to 2022. He also served as the president of Kumarappa National Handmade Paper Institute. His tenure as the Lieutenant Governor of Delhi has been marred by allegations of partisanship, undue indulgences, and persistent interference in the administrative functions of the elected Delhi Government. Such criticisms have been amplified by his long-standing admiration for and association with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, whose party, the BJP, has remained at loggerheads with the Aam Aadmi Party, its principal opposition that governed Delhi until early 2025.
