The government's handling of Governor Arif Mohammed Khan's "disinclination" to approve the policy address for the next fiscal drew an unusually sharp response from the Communist Party of India (CPI).
CPI State secretary Kanam Rajendran said the government had succumbed to Mr. Khan's pressure without a fight. He echoed the sentiment expressed in an editorial published by J anayugam, the CPI's newspaper, on Friday.
Mr. Khan had overstepped his constitutional bounds by withholding his assent to the policy address ratified by the Cabinet.
