Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin on Saturday said the decision of Governor R.N. Ravi to withhold assent to the Bills adopted by the State Assembly was “illegal, anti-people, against his conscience and above all, against the sovereignty of the Assembly.”
Moving a government resolution for reconsidering and passing those Bills in a special session of the Assembly, Mr. Stalin said the Governor could extend help to the development of the State and make use of his proximity to the Centre to get funding for State projects, facilitate construction of building for AIIMS in Madurai, get the pending GST amount due to Tamil Nadu and new railway projects.
The main Opposition AIADMK led by Edappadi K. Palaniswami and BJP members led by Nainar Nagenthiran staged a walk-out.
