Whenever it appears to the Governor that the public interest no longer requires the active service of the Connecticut State Guard or any portion thereof, he shall forthwith order so many of said troops as he believes may safely be dispensed with into inactive service as members of the Connecticut State Guard reserve or may disband and discharge them, or any portion of them, as he may see fit.
