Governor has discretion on Nominated-MLA seats. Usually they go by the recommendation from respective cabinet, but they have power to reject, if they don't like the nominations.

In Puducherry, LG @thekiranbedi ignored cabinet's nominations and cleared her own nominations! https://twitter.com/aakuraj/status/1249711095553470464

#Maharashtra cabinet can propose any name 4 the 2 vacant 'Nominated-MLA' seats in Legislative-Council. But @maha_governor has FINAL DISCRETION/POWER to accept/reject such proposal. He can nominate some 'renowned-person', on his own as well, as Bedi did https://www.deccanherald.com/national/west/uddhav-thackerays-name-proposed-for-council-vacancy-823370.html

For #NominatedMLA category, person should have special knowledge or practical-experience in respect of matters such as:
>literature
>science
>art
>co-operative movement
>social services
.. b4 nominated by @maha_governor.

Which special knowledge/experience, @OfficeofUT posses?
